26 Dabigatran versus Warfarin in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation (RE-LY) In patients with atrial fibrillation, dabigatran given at a dose of 110 mg was associated with rates of stroke and systemic embolism that were similar to those associated with warfarin, as well as lower rates of major hemorrhage Dabigatran administered at a dose of 150 mg, as compared with warfarin, was associated with lower rates of stroke and systemic embolism but similar rates of major hemorrhage Connolly SJ et al. N Engl J Med 2009;361:
27 Rivaroxaban versus Warfarin in Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation (ROCKET AF) In this trial, 14,264 patients with atrial fibrillation were randomly assigned to receive either rivaroxaban or warfarin. In a per-protocol, as-treated analysis, rivaroxaban was noninferior to warfarin with respect to the primary end point of stroke or systemic embolism. Patel MR et al. N Engl J Med 2011;365:
28 Apixaban in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation (AVERROES) In this trial, the factor Xa inhibitor apixaban was shown to reduce the risk of stroke or systemic embolism, as compared with aspirin, without a significant increase in the risk of major bleeding. Apixaban is an alternative to aspirin for patients who cannot take warfarin. Connolly SJ et al. N Engl J Med 2011;364:
29 Apixaban versus Warfarin in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation (ARISTOTLE) Apixaban was superior to warfarin in preventing stroke or systemic embolism, caused less bleeding, and lowered mortality. Granger CB et al. N Engl J Med 2011;365:

39 Conclusions Atrial fibrillation is common Atrial fib is an important risk factor for stroke. Stroke risk can be determined using CHADS and CHADSvasc Patients at increased risk of stroke should be anticoagulated. Aspirin does little. The era of new anticoagulants is here and now.
