Background: The Cardiac failure, Hypertension, Age, Diabetes, Stroke [Doubled](CHADS 2)
score is a useful scheme for risk stratification of thromboembolism patients, but there is little …

The CHADS2 score has been proposed for stratifying patients with nonvalvular atrial
fibrillation (NVAF) according to the risk of thromboembolism in the AHA/ACC/ESC …

Thromboembolic Risk Stratification in AF. Background: Antithrombotic recommendations for
relatively low risk patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) are not well established. Some patients …

Anticoagulation in CHADS2 Score 1. Background: The revised ACC/AHA/ESC 2006
guideline recommends either aspirin or warfarin for the prevention of ischemic stroke in …

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: A new index for predicting embolic risk in nonvalvular
atrial fibrillation has been proposed, the CHADS2 score, which is calculated by adding 1 …

Background The components of CHADS 2 score were reported to be important risk factors
for the development of atrial fibrillation (AF). The goal of the current study was to investigate …

It remains unclear if the CHADS2 score or CHA2DS2-VASc score is more useful for the risk
stratification of ischemic stroke/systemic thromboembolism in Japanese patients with non …

For stratification of thromboembolic events in atrial fibrillation (AF), the CHADS2 score has
gained wide acceptance. However, the risk of stroke remains significant even in the lower …
