BackgroundClinical risk scores, CHADS2
and CHA2DS2‐VASc scores, are the established tools for assessing stroke risk in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF).
AimThe aim of this study is to assess concordance between manual and computer‐based calculation of CHADS2
and CHA2DS2‐VASc scores, as well as to analyse the patient categories using CHADS2
and the potential improvement on stroke risk stratification...
Stroke and CHA2DS2‐VASc Score = 0. Objectives: Patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and a CHA2DS2‐VASc score = 0 have a very low risk of stroke and current guidelines even recommend no antithrombotic therapy to these patients. We investigated the rate and risk of adverse events and the impact of antithrombotic management in a community based cohort of AF patients with a CHA2DS2‐VASc score = 0.
