3 Scope of the problem: AF and stroke stroke survivors living in Wales 7000 strokes occur annually in Wales Patients with AF 5x more likely to suffer a stroke than those without AF Stroke is the 4 th largest cause of death in Wales 1000 strokes caused by AF in Wales each year 70% higher risk of death in stroke patients with AF than those without

5 Evolution of risk management 1,2 CHADS 2 HEMORR 2 HAGES CHA 2 DS 2 -VASc HAS-BLED 2018 Guidelines recommend using the CHA 2 DS 2 -VASc score to estimate stroke risk in AF patients 2 Stroke risk factors are a CHA 2 DS 2 - VASc of 1 for men or 2 for women 2 CHA 2 DS 2 -VASc = 0 is the only score where net clinical benefit of warfarin < bleeding risk in patients with AF 3 HAS-BLED outperforms older bleeding scores in predicting major bleeding, and correlates well with intracranial haemorrhage 3 AF: atrial fibrillation; CHA 2 DS 2 -VASc: congestive heart failure, hypertension, age 75 (doubled), diabetes, stroke or transient ischaemic attack (doubled), vascular disease, age 65 74, and sex category (female); CHADS 2 : congestive heart failure, hypertension, age 75, diabetes, transient ischaemic attack (doubled), HAS-BLED: hypertension (i.e. uncontrolled blood pressure), abnormal renal/liver function, stroke, bleeding history or predisposition, labile INR (if on warfarin), elderly (e.g. age >65, frail condition), drugs (e.g. aspirin, NSAIDs)/alcohol concomitantly; HEMORR 2 HAGES: hepatic or renal disease, ethanol abuse, malignancy, older age >75, reduced platelet count or function, re-bleeding risk, hypertension (uncontrolled), anaemia, genetic factors, excessive fall risk, stroke NICE Guidelines (CG180).

NICE CG180: Do not use aspirin monotherapy Do not offer aspirin monotherapy solely for stroke prevention to people with AF 1 In line with other international guidelines, NICE recommends that aspirin monotherapy is no longer a management option for AF: Aspirin confers only limited benefit in stroke risk reduction 2 Benefits are not offset by the associated increase in bleeding risk 2 AF: atrial fibrillation; NICE: National Institute for Health and Care Excellence. 1.
