  • Interpretation of the assessment and mitigation of bleeding risk in atrial fibrillation and venous thromboembolism: A position paper from ESC/EHRA/AACA/APHRS

    Atrial fibrillation is now the most frequent kind of adult arrhythmia in the world, with a prevalence rate at 2%-4%. In addition to the clinical symptoms of palpitation, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and decreased exercise tolerance, patients with atrial fibrillation have a 4 to 5 times higher risk of ischemic stroke than patients without atrial fibrillation, so anticoagulation therapy should be tailored to the CHA2DS2-VASc [congestive heart failure, hypertension, age≥75 years (doubled), diabetes mellitus, stroke (doubled)-vascular disease, age 65-74 years and sex category (female)] score. Oral anticoagulants not only prevent thrombosis, but also raise the risk of drug-related bleeding. This paper examines the assessment and mitigation of bleeding risk in atrial fibrillation and venous thromboembolism: A position paper from ESC/EHRA/AACA/APHRS, in order to provide readers with the most up-to-date research on anticoagulant bleeding risk management in patients with atrial fibrillation.
