RandomizedParallel-groupQuadruple-blindTreatment
Summary
objectives: The primary aim of APIXBRAIN-HF Trial is to explore the effects of apixaban on brain protection in patients with sinus rhythm and heart failure Primary / Secondary Endpoint 1. New occurrence of brain pathology 1) Cortical cerebral microinfarcts 2) Silent lacunar infarction 3)Progression of white matter hyperintensities 2. Secondary endpoint 1) The change of cognitive function evaluated by MMSE-2 2) Individual variable of primary endpoint 3. Safety Endpoint Evaluation 1) Cerebral microbleeds on imaging
