Introduction:Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is the most severe adverse effect of anticoagulation in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients. Hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and chronic kidney disease are well-known cardiovascular risk factors for ICH. Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page A49-A49, February 1, 2025.

AF stands for atrial fibrillation. AF and dementia both affect older people and sicker people esp those that have vascular risk factors such as diabetes and high blood pressure and I am sure that is true to an extent and therefore it is also way crucial when we manage patients with AF, that we tackle additional risk factors.

When the doctor is examining the patient, it is important that he feels the pulses in both hands and measures the blood pressure in both arms.
