摘要
<正>1 Risk of stroke in patients with high CHA2DS2VASc and no documented arrhythmias Recent studies have suggested that patients with high CHA2DS2VASc-score[Congestive Heart failure,hypertension,Age≥75 years(doubled),Diabetes,Stroke(doubled),Vascular disease,Age 65-74 years,Sex category(female sex)]thromboembolic complications occurred irrespective of the presence of atrial fibrillation(AF)and anticoagulant therapy may be initiated irrespective of documented AF.[1,2]
