Acute ischemic stroke after cardiac catheterization: the protamine low-dose recombinant tissue plasminogen activator pathway
We report three patients with acute ischemic stroke after cardiac catheterization. After reversing the anticoagulant effect of unfractionated heparin with protamine, all of the patients were successfully off-label thrombolyzed with reduced doses of intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (0.6 mg/kg). This dose was preferred to reduce the risk of symptomatic cerebral or systemic bleeding. The sequential pathway of protamine recombinant tissue plasminogen activator at reduced doses may be safer for reducing intracranial or systemic bleeding events, whereas remaining efficacious for the treatment of acute ische...

Ischaemic stroke in children with cardiopathy: An epidemiological study
Conclusions Arterial ischaemic strokes were mainly associated with complex congenital heart diseases, and heart procedures and surgery (catheterisation). AIS presented when patients were in-hospital and most of the patients were diagnosed in the first 24hours.

Thrombolysis After Protamine Reversal of Heparin for Acute Ischemic Stroke After Cardiac Catheterization: Case Report and Literature Review
Conclusions: There are limited reports of protamine reversal of heparin before IV-tPA administration. To our knowledge, there are only 6 AIS cases including ours. Three cases received 0.6 mg/kg of tPA dose. All have favorable outcomes and no intracranial hemorrhage was reported. Protamine reversal of heparin for AIS after CC seems to be safe. Further studies are needed to confirm the therapeutic safety and efficacy of this strategy.

Management of patients with patent foramen ovale and cryptogenic stroke
Conclusions: Available data provided the basis for a shared approach to management of cryptogenic ischemic cerebral events and PFO among different Italian scientific societies. Wider international initiatives on the topic are awaited. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Portal–Left Atrium Shunt Leading to Stroke
A 37-year-old man presented acutely with a stroke, ataxia, and left upper limb weakness. His medical history was positive for congenital low-grade liver fibrosis and for a single episode of paresthesia of the left upper limb (4 y previously). Magnetic resonance imaging showed acute ischemic lesions in the right cerebellum and temporal region (). Chest radiography, blood tests, and echocardiography were normal. Computed tomography demonstrated dilatation of the portal vein and gastroesophageal varix arising from the left gastric vein (arrowhead) and reaching the left atrium (arrow), which is partially contrasted in the veno...

Initial experience with the novel patent foramen ovale occlusion device Nit‐Occlud® in patients with stroke or transient ischemic attack
ConclusionIn patients with cryptogenic stroke or TIA and a PFO, the Nit‐Occlud® PFO Occlusion Device appears to be both a safe and effective means to occlude the PFO. It is associated with high procedural success and favorable rates of complete closure. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Searching for patent foramen ovale in a 44-year-old female patient after ischemic stroke - diagnostic problems.
We present the case of a 44-year-old female patient after ischemic stroke, in whom PFO was not detected by echocardiography; the defect was ultimately diagnosed by right heart catheterization. PMID: 27516797 [PubMed]

Rationale and design of a global registry to evaluate real ‐world clinical outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation and high risk of stroke treated with left atrial appendage occlusion using the AMPLATZER amulet device—Perspective of available/ongoing registries of catheter‐based LAA occlusion
ConclusionsThere is an important need for prospective real‐world clinical data of catheter‐based LAA occlusion given the increasing application of this intervention. The present global real‐world registry will expand our knowledge on peri‐procedural and long‐term outcome of catheter‐based LAA occlusion using a second generation occlusion device.

High Right Ventricular Stroke Work Index Is Associated with Worse Kidney Function in Patients with Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction

Embolic stroke of undetermined source and patent foramen ovale closure: Practice insights from meta ‐analysis?
Key Points Closure of patent foramen ovale (PFO) in embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) reduces recurrent stroke compared with antiplatelet therapy in select patients but increases risk of atrial fibrillation. Device closure is an attractive option for young patients with an anatomically higher risk PFO and imaging proven ESUS. Benefit of PFO closure in ESUS compared with oral anticoagulation remains undefined.
