Both the CHADS 2 and the CHA 2 DS 2-VASc score predict future stroke risk in people with A-fib with CHA 2 DS 2-VASc score being more accurate. The addition of blood based biomarkers such as NT-proBNP and neurofilament light chain improves risk prediction significantly. [166] Some that had a CHADS 2 score of zero had a CHA 2 DS 2-VASc score of ...
