Cryptogenic Stroke And Role Of Loop Recorder.
Ischemic stroke is an important cause of morbidity and mortality when untreated. Identifying atrial fibrillation is important because atrial fibrillation ischemic related strokes are associated with an increased risk of disability and death compared with strokes of other etiologies and tend to recur without anticoagulation. However, atrial fibrillation detection can be difficult when it is asym...
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...

Cryptogenic stroke (CS) is defined as the infarction of the brain that is not attributable to a source of definite cradioembolic (CE), large artery atherosclerosis (LAA), or small artery disease (SAD) despite extensive vascular, cardiac and serologic evaluation. The term Cryptogenic stroke (CS) was first used in the National Institute of Neurologic Disease and Stroke (NINDS) Data bank1. The TOA...
متن کاملCharacteristics of cryptogenic stroke in cancer patients.
OBJECTIVE To clarify the characteristics of cryptogenic stroke in patients with active cancer. METHODS Patients with or without cancer diagnosed with acute ischemic stroke between January 2006 and February 2015 were extracted from a prospectively collected stroke database of Osaka University Hospital.

متن کاملCryptogenic stroke in patients with patent foramen ovale.
Paradoxical embolism through a patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a commonly identified potential mechanism of ischemic stroke, especially in young patients. The recurrent stroke rate among young cryptogenic stroke patients with a PFO is modest, but higher than normal for their age. Co-existing atrial septal aneurysm is a substantial, and the only definite, potentiator of stroke risk in patients wit...
