Heart Check for Stroke Risk in Atrial Fibrillation
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial uses heart imaging to better understand stroke risk in people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). It may help doctors decide on the best treatment to prevent another stroke.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have atrial fibrillation that comes and goes, lasts a long time, or is constant.
- You have had a recent stroke (within the last 7 days) that caused symptoms.
- You or your family can agree to the study in writing.
- You are expected to live at least another year.

This study looks at heart ultrasound pictures and heart-rhythm recordings to predict who may develop atrial fibrillation (AF) after a stroke or TIA. If you qualify, your results may help doctors better spot people at higher risk earlier.
This trial tests an early treatment approach for people who had a recent ischemic stroke (a stroke caused by a blocked blood vessel) and have an irregular heart rhythm called atrial fibrillation (AF). It aims to lower the chance of having another stroke by treating AF as early as possible after the stroke.
This study watches how people recover from a recent stroke caused by a heart rhythm problem called atrial fibrillation (or AFib). It aims to find better ways to predict recovery and guide future care.
This registry study follows people with atrial fibrillation to learn which risk factors are linked to stroke or blood clots traveling through the body. Your information helps improve how doctors predict risk and choose prevention strategies.
This study uses AI-powered heart monitoring to detect a type of irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation) that may develop after a stroke. Catching this condition early could help prevent future strokes and guide your treatment.
This study looks at how to better predict both stroke risk and bleeding risk in people with atrial fibrillation. It may help doctors choose safer blood-thinner treatment and follow-up plans.
