BACKGROUND: Although warfarin and other anticoagulants can prevent ischemic events,
they can cause hemorrhage. Quantifying the rate of hemorrhage is crucial for determining …

Objectives: The objective of this study was to compare the predictive performance of
bleeding risk–estimation tools in a cohort of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) undergoing …

To the Editor: Estimation of bleeding risk is a crucial step in the management of patients with
atrial fibrillation (AF). Three bleeding risk–prediction schemes have been derived and …

Background—Management decisions for thromboprophylaxis in atrial fibrillation need to
balance the risk of stroke against serious hemorrhage. The objective of the present analysis …

Background: Oral anticoagulation (OAC) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) is a double‐
edged sword, because it decreases the risk of stroke at the cost of an increased risk of …

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate predictors of bleeding in a cohort of
anticoagulated patients and to evaluate the predictive value of several bleeding risk …

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to develop a risk stratification score to predict
warfarin-associated hemorrhage. Background: Optimal decision making regarding warfarin …

Objectives Various bleeding risk prediction schemes, such as the Hypertension, Abnormal
renal/liver function, Stroke, Bleeding history or predisposition, Labile international …

Our objective was to compare the diagnostic accuracy between the HAS‐BLED score and
any of HEMORR2HAGES, ATRIA, CHADS2, or CHA2DS2‐VASc scores in anticoagulated …

Background and purpose Develop and validate a contemporary bleeding risk model to
guide the clinical use of warfarin in the elderly atrial fibrillation (AF) population. Methods …
