FIGURE 2

Frequency of prior anticoagulation treatment in patients with ischemic stroke. (A) Percentages of patients with atrial fibrillation among all ischemic stroke patients. (B) Percentages of patients with atrial fibrillation within the subgroup of ischemic stroke patients potentially eligible for intravenous thrombolysis. Note the decrease in VKA pretreatment with concomitant rapid increase in DOAC pretreatment in both patient groups. DOACs = direct oral anticoagulants; IVT = intravenous thrombolysis; VKA = vitamin K antagonist.
