P4744Patients with atrial fibrillation exhibit a systemic prothrombotic state attributable to impaired endogenous fibrinolysis

Abstract Background The association of atrial fibrillation (AF) with thromboembolic stroke due to stasis in the left atrium and left atrial appendage is well described. Whether AF is associated with a systemic prothrombotic state, detectable in peripheral blood, unclear. Previous studies have been i...

Whether AF is associated with a systemic prothrombotic state, detectable in peripheral blood, unclear. Previous studies have been inconsistent, with some very small previous studies (
