Antithrombotic managements of atrial fibrillation and artificial heart valves have been revolutionalized in the past two decades through many randomized large clinical trials.Adjusted-dose warfarin has been identified as the most efficacious preventive medicine against stroke for these patients at moderate-to-high risk.As more elderly patients are anticoagulated, warfarin-associated intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is an increasing problem and has a 50% early mortality.Urgent effects are undertaken to develop effective treatment and prevention of this devastating problem.
