ABC-Scores for Reduction of Stroke and Mortality in Atrial Fibrillation - The ABC-AF Study

NCT03753490

Active Not RecruitingNA

Sponsor: Uppsala University

Conditions: Atrial Fibrillation

Interventions: ABC score guided therapy, Standard care

Countries: Sweden

The primary study objective is to evaluate if personalized treatment by decision support, based on the biomarker-based risk prediction (ABC-scores) guided strategy, reduces the occurrence of the composite outcome of stroke or death in patients with atrial fibrillation. Approximately 6500 patients will be randomized 1:1 to ABC risk score guided therapy or standard care.
