Detection of occult atrial fibrillation with 24-hour ECG after cryptogenic acute stroke or transient ischaemic attack: A retrospective cross-sectional study in a primary care database in Israel
CONCLUSION: 24-hour Holter has a low AF/AFL detection rate. Older persons and those with hypertension or CKD are more likely to be detected with AF/AFL using this method.PMID:34240675 | DOI:10.1080/13814788.2021.1947237

Implantable vs Prolonged External Electrocardiographic Monitoring for Atrial Fibrillation Detection in Ischemic Stroke —Reply
In Reply Dr Ito notes that adherence to monitoring may affect the diagnostic yield for wearable electrocardiographic monitors and suggests that poor adherence to external monitoring is responsible for the lower incidence of atrial fibrillation we found among patients with a recent ischemic stroke randomized to an external loop recorder vs an implantable loop recorder. However, our study data do not support that notion.

Evaluating the Risk of Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation in Noncardioembolic Ischemic Stroke Using Artificial Intelligence-Enabled ECG Algorithm
CONCLUSION: Using AI-ECG-AF, we found that noncardioembolic IS patients had a higher PAF risk relative to the general patient population. The results from our study imply the need for more vigorous cardiac monitoring in noncardioembolic IS patients. AI-ECG-AF can be a cost-effective screening tool to identify high-risk noncardioembolic IS patients of PAF on-the-spot to be candidates for receiving additional prolonged cardiac monitoring. Our study highlights the potential of AI in clinical practice.PMID:35463788 | PMC:PMC9024295 | DOI:10.3389/fcvm.2022.865852

Po-668-02 atrial fibrillation duration by ambulatory electrocardiogram monitor and risk of stroke: insights from the veterans health administration
Reduction in stroke risk associated with oral anticoagulation (OAC) is greatest for implantable device-detected atrial fibrillation (AF) lasting ≥ 24 hours.

Mayo Clinic research finds AI-enabled ECGs may identify patients at greater risk of stroke, cognitive decline
ROCHESTER, Minn. — Atrial fibrillation, the most common cardiac rhythm abnormality, has been linked to one-third of ischemic strokes, the most common type of stroke. But atrial fibrillation is underdiagnosed, partly because many patients are asymptomatic. Artificial intelligence-enabled electrocardiography (ECG) w as recently shown to identify the presence of brief episodes of atrial fibrillation, and the ability of an AI-enabled ECG algorithm to predict atrial fibrillation up to 10 years before clinical diagnosis has been confirmed…

AI-guided screening uses ECG data to detect a hidden risk factor for stroke
An AI-guided targeted screening strategy is effective in detecting new cases of atrial fibrillation that would not have come to attention in routine clinical care. This strategy could reduce the number of undiagnosed cases of atrial fibrillation, and prevent stroke and death in millions of patients across the globe. ROCHESTER, Minn. — Researchers at Mayo Clinic used artificial intelligence (AI) to evaluate patients’ electrocardiograms (ECGs) in a targeted strategy to screen for atrial fibrillation, a…

Dh-452784-2 identifying atrial fibrillation with sinus rhythm electrocardiogram using artificial intelligence in embolic stroke with undetermined source
Previous studies have demonstrated acceptable ranges of accuracy of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms for identifying patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) based on their sinus rhythm electrocardiograms (ECGs). However, none of them has been validated in patients with embolic stroke with undetermined source (ESUS) in which thorough AF screening is required.

Supermarket trolleys may be able to spot people most at risk of a STROKE by detecting a faulty heartbeat
The trolleys are fitted with electrocardiogram (ECG) technology to detect hidden atrial fibrillation (AF), an irregular heartbeat that is a leading cause of stroke.

Stenosis Length and Degree Interact With the Risk of Cerebrovascular Events Related to Internal Carotid Artery Stenosis
Conclusion: We found a statistically insignificant tendency for the ultrasound-measured length of sICAS<70% to be longer than that of sICAS≥70%. Moreover, the ultrasound-measured length of sICAS<90% was significantly longer than that of sICAS 90%. Among patients with sICAS≥70%, the degree and length of stenosis were inversely correlated. Larger studies are needed before a clinical implication can be drawn from these results. Introduction Internal carotid artery stenosis (ICAS) causes around one-fifth of ischemic cerebrovascular stroke and has the highest risk of early stroke recurrence...

Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis Is Associated With Circadian and Other Variability in Embolus Detection
Conclusions: Embolism associated with asymptomatic carotid stenosis shows circadian variation with highest rates 4–6 h before midday. This corresponds with peak circadian incidence of stroke and other vascular complications. These and ASED Study results show that monitoring frequency, duration, and time of day are important in ES detection. Introduction Transcranial Doppler (TCD) detected microembolism in the ipsilateral middle cerebral artery (MCA) may help stratify the risk of stroke and other arterial disease complications in persons with advanced (≥60%) asymptomatic carotid stenosis. If so, this t...
