Female Sex Is a Risk Modifier Rather Than a Risk Factor for Stroke in Atrial Fibrillation: Should We Use a CHA2DS2-VA Score Rather Than CHA2DS2-VASc?
Background: Stroke risk in atrial fibrillation is assessed by using the CHA2DS2-VASc score.
Sex category (Sc, ie, female sex) confers 1 point on CHA2DS2-VASc. We hypothesized that …
