Kaplan Meier analysis for composite endpoint consisting of stroke, MI or all-cause mortality showed an increase in outcomes stratified by CHA2DS2-VASc risk category.
Patients within higher risk categories of the CHA2DS2-VASc score showed a higher probability for the composite endpoint. Abbreviations: EP, endpoint.
