Study Summary

In this open-label, prospective, randomized pilot study, patients who develop atrial fibrillation after isolated coronary artery bypass grafting surgery will be identified. Patients with persistent atrial fibrillation (\>12 hours) or recurrent sustained atrial fibrillation (\>2 episodes of atrial fibrillation lasting longer than 30 minutes) will be candidates for inclusion. Upon meeting study inclusion and exclusion criteria, and after informed consent, patients will be randomized to either the standard of care (warfarin per protocol) or apixaban arms of the trial. Routine postoperative care after CABG will occur in both groups. Upon discharge, anticoagulation in both groups will be managed by the anticoagulation clinic. Patients will be followed for 30 days after surgery.

Primary Outcome

Efficacy will be measured by the freedom from stroke during the study period. Events relating to stroke will be adjudicated using pre-determined definitions by independent committee members that remain blinded to the patient's treatment arm.
