This is an observational study that enrolls 1,000 adults who have experienced an acute ischemic stroke (a stroke caused by a blood clot) and have atrial fibrillation, a condition where the heart beats irregularly. Researchers will perform a comprehensive set of heart and brain imaging tests, along with extended heart monitoring, to understand which patients are at highest risk for another stroke or serious complications, and to help doctors decide on the best treatment approach for each person.
Strokes caused by atrial fibrillation tend to be more severe and disabling than other types of strokes, but we don't yet have a clear way to predict which patients will recover well and which patients need which treatments. This study aims to create better tools to predict outcomes and guide personalized treatment decisions.

If you enroll, you will have a baseline evaluation that includes blood tests, brain imaging (CT or MRI), heart imaging (echocardiography and specialized scans), and extended heart monitoring to detect any irregular rhythms. You will then receive treatment according to current medical guidelines for your stroke and heart condition. The study will track your health outcomes over time to understand how well different treatment strategies work for patients like you.
