Blood Thinners
for Atrial Fibrillation
This trial is testing whether taking blood-thinning pills can prevent strokes and other heart issues in patients who have temporary irregular heartbeats and are at risk of stroke after surgery. These pills are a recent breakthrough in preventing strokes.

Heart Rate Control
for Cerebrovascular Physiology
The investigators will seek to determine the relationship between heart rate and middle cerebral artery (MCA) cerebral blood flow (CBF), as well as better understand the hemodynamic determinants of MCA CBF velocity. In order to manipulate heart rate, the investigators will recruit patients already scheduled for clinically indicated elective electrophysiological studies, where temporary pacing catheters placed in the right atrium can be used to artificially pace the heart at controlled rates. MCA CBF will be measured by transcranial Doppler ultrasound.
