Overview
Aspirin has been found to decrease the incidence of recurrent stroke and transient ischemic attacks in patients with atrial septal defect and patent foramen ovale [1]. The 'American Heart Association' guidelines support the utilization of sustained warfarin therapy in high-risk atrial septal defect patients.[2]
Medical therapy for stroke
- Researchers have investigated the justification for aspirin therapy in patients with atrial septal defects and patent foramen ovale, who have had stroke or a transient ischemic attack.[1]
- Aspirin therapy was observed to have an effective role in reducing the incidence of recurrent stroke after four years.[1]
- Another pharmacologic intervention study indicated that aspirin and warfarin therapy were effective [3]
- The AHA guidelines support the utilization of sustained warfarin therapy in high-risk atrial septal defect patients. [4]
