New-onset trial fibrillation (AF) occurs commonly after acute myocardial infarction (MI) and is associated with a poor prognosis due to stroke or death. The optimal antithrombotic therapy is unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate whether an oral direct thrombin inhibitor, ximelagatran, added to aspirin, reduced the risk of death, myocardial infarction (MI), and stroke in patients who developed AF after their qualifying MI in the efficacy and safety of the oral direct thrombin inhibitor ximelagatran in patients with recent myocardial damage (ESTEEM) trial.
