The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness (prevention ofhromboembolic events) and safety (major bleeding) of adding oral anticoagulation (OAC) to background antiplatelet therapy in patients who develop new-onset post-operative atrialbrillation (POAF) after isolated coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. All patients with a qualifying POAF event, …

What is the purpose of this study?Currently, 7 million US stroke survivors have significant disability, more than half with residual motor deficits. Motor function, particularly of the upper extremity (UE), is critical for regaining independence after stroke. VERIFY will validate biomarkers of upper extremity (UE) motor outcome in the acute …
What will happen during the study?The REASSESS study will conduct long-term cognitive, functional, and neuropsychiatric performance assessments to determine if evacuation of spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) reduces the risk of later cognitive decline in the ageing brain.. The investigators propose to perform serial detailed cognitive, motor, behavioral, and blood collection …
This study investigates the use of anticoagulation in patients who have survived an intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and have non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF). Atrial fibrillation is a condition where the heart beats irregularly, which can increase the risk of stroke. The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and …
