Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in cryptogenic stroke
INTRODUCTION Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) is perhaps the most underdiagnosed mechanism of apparent cryptogenic stroke (CS). Various studies have shown that increasing the duration of monitoring can increase the diagnosis of PAF in CS. METHODS We compared demographic and risk factors for ischemic stroke across different TOAST (Trial of ORG 10172 in Acute Stroke Treatment) stroke subtyp...
متن کاملAtrial fibrillation in patients with cryptogenic stroke.
BACKGROUND Atrial fibrillation is a leading preventable cause of recurrent stroke for which early detection and treatment are critical. However, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation is often asymptomatic and likely to go undetected and untreated in the routine care of patients with ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA). METHODS We randomly assigned 572 patients 55 years of age or older...
متن کاملCryptogenic stroke and underlying atrial fibrillation.
BACKGROUND Current guidelines recommend at least 24 hours of electrocardiographic (ECG) monitoring after an ischemic stroke to rule out atrial fibrillation. However, the most effective duration and type of monitoring have not been established, and the cause of ischemic stroke remains uncertain despite a complete diagnostic evaluation in 20 to 40% of cases (cryptogenic stroke). Detection of atri...

متن کاملAtrial fibrillation in cryptogenic stroke: new tools needed for diagnosis?
First of all, we would like to thank the authors for their interest in our article, given their experience in this field. Although endomyocardial fibrosis is clearly an idiopathic restrictive cardiomyopathy typically occurring in tropical and subtropical regions, it has also been previously reported in European citizens with no history of travelling to tropical countries. Some of these reports ...
