Summary

Study Design:

This is an investigator-initiated prospective, open label, single arm phase IV study. Patients with documented non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) with acute TIA (defined as acute focal neurological deficits, with complete resolution of symptoms within 24 h of onset) or ischemic stroke, irrespective of infarct volume or clinical severity will be enrolled.

Study Aim and Objectives:

The overall aim of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility and safety of initiating apixaban therapy within 14 days of TIA or ischemic stroke regardless of the size and severity in patients with AF. Investigators will systematically assess prospectively collected CT scan images for evidence of HT and re-infarction.
