RECRUITINGOBSERVATIONAL
Multimodal Prognostic Assessment of Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients With Atrial Fibrillation: a Prospective, Multicenter, Observational Study (IAT-CLOSURE)
About This Trial
The main purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and outcomes of different treatment strategies, including best medical therapy (OAC \[oral anticoagulation\], antiplatelet \[APT\]) and left atrial appendage closure \[LAAC\] in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) based on multimodal assessment from combined brain and cardiologic work-up, and to optimize secondary prevention.
Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)
Who May Qualify:
1. Age \> 18 years old；
2. Acute ischemic stroke with onset ≤ 14 days；
3. Previously or during this hospitalization diagnosed with non-valvular atrial fibrillation;
4. willing to sign a consent form obtained from the patient or his/her legal representative；
Who Should NOT Join This Trial:
1. Pacemaker, implantable cardioverter defibrillator or implantable cardiac monitor;
2. Left atrial appendage has been removed or post occlusion device implantation;
3. Transient AF secondary to other reversible disorders；
4. Life expectancy less than 1 year;
5. Patients that cannot complete subsequent follow-up (e.g. no fixed residence, overseas patients, etc.);
6. Females who are pregnant or in lactation;
7. Participating in other clinical trials that could confound the evaluation of the study;
8. Other circumstances that the investigator considers inappropriate for participation or may pose a significant risk to patients.
Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.
