Revisiting the Dilemmas
A trial fibrillation is a common cardiac dysrhythmia / \ of the elderly, and stroke is its most devastating JL ^ complication. Six years ago in Stroke, we discussed controversies surrounding the prevention of stroke in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (AF). Since then, six recent randomized trials have changed the approach to stroke prevention for AF patients.Above all else, the ra...
متن کاملThe Prevalence of Prescription of New Anticoagulant Drugs and Its Determinant Factors in Patients With Ischemic Stroke and Non-valvular Atrial Fibrillation
Background: Patients with ischemic stroke and underlying Atrial Fibrillation (AF) have a high risk of recurrent embolic events. New Oral Anticoagulant (NOAC) is highly effective and reduces the risk of recurrence in AF-associated Ischemic Stroke (AFAIS). Objectives: This study aimed to determine the prescription pattern of NOAC and its determinant factors in patients with non-valvular AFAIS. ...
متن کاملTranscranial Doppler application for risk assessment of stroke in patients with mechanical mitral valve
Introduction: Observing microembolic signals in brain vessels by transcranial Doppler technology is a very common finding in patients with mechanical heart valve. These signals are almost always clinically asymptomatic. The aim of this study was assessment of transcranial Doppler in detecting probability of stroke in patients with mechanical heart valve. Methods: This descriptive study was ca...
متن کاملIncreased IL-17A in Atrial Fibrillation Correlates with Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio
Background: Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia and an independent risk factor for stroke among the elderly. A role for inflammation in the atrial remodeling as well as development and recurrence of AF is known. Objective: To compare IL-17A between patients with different types of AF and healthy individuals. Methods: IL-17A was measured in sera of 112 patients and 107...
متن کاملEvaluation of transesophageal echocardiography in detecting cardiac sources of emboli in ischemic stroke patients
Background: Embolus is one of the causes of ischemic stroke that can be due to cardiac sources such as valvular heart diseases and atrial fibrillation and atheroma of the aorta. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is superior in identifying potential cardiac sources of emboli. Due to insufficient data on TEE findings in ischemic stroke in Iran, the present study was done to evaluate TEE in...
متن کاملIndependent Effect of Digoxin in Preventing Atrial Fibrillation in High Risk Patients after CABG Surgery
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is one of the most common arrhythmias after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. AF can result in hemodynamic instability, thromboembolic events, increase the perioperative myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, stroke, more length of hospital stay (LOHS) and cost of treatment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the independent effect of...
