Brief Summary:
People with atrial fibrillation who have a stroke while receiving a DOAC are at increased risk of experiencing another stroke. Physicians do not know the best medication to prevent another stroke in this group of people. Options include continuing the same DOAC, switching to another DOAC or switching to warfarin.
The investigators of the SWITCH-AF trial are trying to find out whether switching to warfarin or continuing a DOAC is better for preventing stroke.
The purpose of this study, called a pilot study, is to test the study plan and to find out whether enough participants will join a larger study that answers the question. A pilot study involves a small number of participants and it is not expected to tell us which treatment is better.
