Carotid Implants for PreveNtion of STrokE ReCurrEnce From Large Vessel Occlusion in Atrial Fibrillation Patients Treated With Oral Anticoagulation (NCT05723926)

🟢 Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic ⚙️ Medical Device Protocol Sponsor: Javelin Medical

🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

Patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) who have had a prior stroke are at very high risk of recurrent ischemic stroke. About 40% of these strokes are due to large emboli which result in large cerebral vessel occlusion (LVO). This randomized control trial aims to address this unmet need by testing whether use of bilateral carotid filter implants in addition to OAC will reduce the risk of stroke in AF patients with recent (e.g. within 12 months) ischemic stroke vs. only OAC.
