Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Investigator-initiated prospective multicentre hospital-based registry to uncover the proportion of self-reported anticoagulation in stroke patients with atrial fibrillation and assessing the proportion of stroke, intracranial bleeding and all-cause death in the short (at 3 months), mid-term (at 12 months) as well as long term (at 24 months) after ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack in an unselected urban population in Germany. In addition, annual follow-up is planned yearly up to 5 years after enrollment.
