About this study

The Advancing knowledge in ischemic Stroke PatiEnts on oRal Anticoagulants (ASPERA) study aims to investigate characteristics of ischemic stroke cases occurring in patients on oral anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation (AF) or other cardioembolic arrhythmias and to characterize short and long-term outcomes associated with different secondary prevention strategies to prevent stroke recurrences. The ASPERA study is a multicenter, observational, both retrospective and prospective real-world study involving acute ischemic stroke patients occurring on oral anticoagulation. The study will encompass a retrospective (ASPERA-R) and prospective (ASPERA-P) data collection. Patient will be recruited consecutively at different emergency services and stroke units worldwide. University of L'Aquila (UnivAQ) will be in charge of study coordination, data analysis and management. The duration of ASPERA-R will be of 5-year from the study initiation of the study. Participating centers will be given a 6-month timeframe to enter retrospective data, commencing from the date of study approval. ASPERA-P duration will be of 2 years of enrollment from the study approval and follow-up of 5 years. (study conclusion after 7 years of approval). Inclusion criteria will be: 1.Confirmed diagnosis of ischemic stroke. 2. Availability of at least one neuroimaging exam positive for ischemic lesion(s) consistent with patient symptoms. 3. Ongoing oral anticoagulation at the time of the index ischemic stroke. 4. P…
