NCT ID NCT03243175

First seen Apr 16, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 7 times

Summary

This study looks at 300 adults with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) who have had a brain bleed. It compares three approaches to prevent future strokes: restarting blood thinners, using a device to close a part of the heart (left atrial appendage closure), or avoiding both. The goal is to find which strategy offers the best balance of preventing clots while avoiding another bleed.
