• Patients with atrial fibrillation are at increased risk for embolic stroke owing to
formation of thrombus in the left atrium, which can embolize and occlude
branches of the intracerebral circulation
11/26/2023 Dr abdu 6
Primary Hypotheses
• In patients with rheumatic valvular heart disease (RVHD) and who are in atrial
fibrillation or flutter (AF/flutter) and have other stroke risk factors
• 2. In patients with RVHD, either with AF/flutter but unsuitable for VKA therapy,
or with sinus rhythm but with high risk, rivaroxaban is superior to aspirin for
prevention of stroke or systemic embolism

Study design
• This program is a comprehensive evaluation of RVHD, AF/flutter and stroke
includes three major components
