After participating in this educational curriculum, participants should be able to:

• Utilize available stroke risk stratification schemes to further identify risk profiles among patients within your clinical practice
• Describe the current utilization rates of anticoagulants for the prevention of stroke among patients with AF and the risks associated with underutilization of these agents
• Identify at least two barriers faced in clinical practice that impede adherence to AF treatment guidelines for the prevention of stroke and discuss ways to overcome these barriers
• Describe the novel targets in the coagulation cascade that are the basis for newer antithrombotic therapies and discuss their potential implications for stroke prevention among AF patients
