A Prospective, Randomized, Open-label, Parallel-group, Active-controlled, Multicenter Study Exploring the Efficacy and Safety of Once-daily Oral Rivaroxaban (BAY59-7939) Compared With That of Dose-adjusted Oral Vitamin K Antagonists (VKA) for the Prevention of Cardiovascular Events in Subjects With Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation Scheduled for Cardioversion
A Prospective, Randomized, Open-label, Parallel-group, Active-controlled, Multicenter Study Exploring the Efficacy and Safety of Once-daily Oral Rivaroxaban (BAY59-7939) Compared With That of Dose-adjusted Oral Vitamin K Antagonists (VKA) for the Prevention of Cardiovascular Events in Subjects With Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation Scheduled for Cardioversion
A study for patients with abnormal heart rhythm (atrial fibrillation) who need to undergo cardioversion (procedure to restore normal heart rhythm). The study will compare patients assigned randomly (like flipping a coin) to either Rivaroxaban or vitamin K antagonist (VKA).
