  • Ability to provide informed consent
  • No history of prior stroke

Exclusion

  • Current use of low molecular weight heparins in therapeutic dose
  • Evidence of active bleeding
  • Uncorrected coagulopathy or known clotting disorder
  • Platelet count \< 75,000, International Normalized Ratio (INR) \> 1.4 after correction
  • End stage renal disease
  • Patients with a mechanical heart valve
  • End-stage liver disease
  • Epilepsy with grand mal seizures
  • History of drug or alcohol use or dependence that, in the opinion of the site investigator, would interfere with adherence to study requirements
  • Positive urine or serum pregnancy test in female subjects without documented history of surgical sterilization or post-menopausal
  • Known life-expectancy of less than 6 months
  • No reasonable expectation of recovery, Do-Not-Resuscitate (DNR), or comfort measures only prior to randomization
