Background and Purpose-The risk of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) is not homogeneous, and various clinical risk factors have informed the development of stroke risk stratification schemes (RSS). Among anticoagulated cohorts, the emphasis should be on the identification of patients who remain at high risk for stroke despite anticoagulation.Methods-We investigated predictors of thromboembolism (TE) risk in an anticoagulated AF clinical trial cohort (n=7329 subjects) and tested the predictive value of contemporary RSS in this cohort: CHADS(2), Framingham, NICE 2006, American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association/European Society of Cardiology 2006, the 8th American College of Chest Physicians guidelines and the CHA(2)DS(2)-VASc schemes.Results-On multivariate analysis, significant predictors of TE were stroke/TIA (hazard ratio [HR], 2.24; P
