Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common heart rhythm disorder worldwide. Globally, there are 37.5 million people with AF. AF increases the risk of death, heart failure, and stroke, which severely affect patients and also lead to high healthcare costs. Around 25% of all strokes are caused by AF, and patients with stroke due to AF tend to have a higher risk of death and more disability compared to stroke patients without AF. Stroke prevention is, therefore, an important part of AF treatment, in which blood thinning medication has an important role. However, blood thinners increase the risk of bleeding. Therefore, it is important to divide patients with AF into different risk groups, known as risk assessment, to figure out who will benefit the most from blood thinners. To be able to divide patients into different risk groups, various stroke risk assessment tools have been
