Early vs Delayed Direct Oral Anticoagulant (DOAC) Resumption After Ischemic Stroke in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation: A Meta Analysis
Background: For patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) who experience acute ischemic stroke, clinicians must balance prevention of early recurrent embolism against the risk of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) when restarting direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs). The optimal timing for DOAC resumption remains uncertain.
