description Comorbidity is a common feature of a modern patient. The combination of atrial fibrillation (AF) and various types of coronary artery disease is widespread in actual clinical practice. In such cases, additional pathophysiological mechanisms appear that worsen the clinical course and patient’s prognosis. The management of AF patients who have undergone acute coronary syndrome and/or percutaneous coronary intervention is a challenging problem, which can be solved by large-scale clinical trials. The AUGUSTUS randomized trial with a two-by-two factorial design proved that full-dose apixaban is superior in safety to the vitamin K antagonist warfarin, while not inferior in effectiveness. This pattern has been preserved in several important subanalysis on stent thrombosis, hospitalization rates, and conservative management of acute coronary syndrome. The obtained results are included in the novel European Society of Cardiology guidelines on AF.
