The goal of long-term anticoagulation in atrial fibrillation is to reduce the risk of thromboembolism. Patients in AF have a risk of stroke or peripheral embolism that is approximately 5 times that of individuals in sinus rhythm. Recommendations for anticoagulation for patients with nonvalvular AF are based on guidelines from a 2006 ACC/AHA/ESC task force on the management of patients with atrial fibrillation.
