Study to Gain Information on the Drug Xarelto for the Prevention of Brain Attack and Blockage of an Artery in the Non-central Nervous System Due to Irregular Heartbeat in Taiwanese Patients Suffering From Decreased Renal Function

In this study researchers want to learn more about on the safety of the drug Xarelto. The study will enroll patients for whom the treating doctor are prescribing Xarelto for the prevention of brain attack or the prevention of blockage of an artery in the non-central nervous system.
