Anticoagulation in Patients with Ischemic Stroke Related to Atrial Fibrillation, Following Reperfusion Therapy

Following ischemic stroke in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation, the timing to restart anticoagulation treatment is uncertain and controversial. In addition, there is little data available regarding timing to restart anticoagulation following reperfusion therapy with either systemic thrombolysis and/or mechanical thrombectomy.
