Journal Article
Mamas. (2019). Does prior antithrombotic therapy influence recurrence and bleeding risk in stroke patients with atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter?. European Journal of Preventive Cardiology, 2047487319871709 - 2047487319871709. https://doi.org/10.1177/2047487319871709

Background Whilst antithrombotic therapy is recommended in people with atrial fibrillation, little is known about the survival benefits of antithrombotic treatment in those with both high ischaemic and bleeding risk scores. We aim to describe the dis... Read More about Does prior antithrombotic therapy influence recurrence and bleeding risk in stroke patients with atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter?.
