Burden of Premature Atrial Complexes and Risk of Recurrent Stroke and Death in Patients with Mild to Moderate Ischemic Stroke
Premature atrial complexes (PACs) meet increased attention as a potential intermediary between sinus rhythm and atrial fibrillation (AF). Patients with even high numbers of PACs do not fulfill current guidelines for oral anticoagulation treatment though an associated stroke risk is suspected. Objective: We aimed to determine whether a high number of PACs or runs of AF less than 30 seconds in 2-day continuous electrocardiogram (ECG) recording was associated with risk of recurrent ischemic stroke/transient ischemic attack (TIA) or death in a large cohort of patients with acute ischemic stroke or TIA and no prior AF.

Automated Continuous Electrocardiogram Monitoring Accelerates the Detection of Atrial Fibrillation after Ischemic Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack on a Hyper Acute Stroke Unit
Background and Aim: Rapid and sensitive detection of atrial fibrillation (AF) is of paramount importance for initiation of adequate preventive therapy after stroke. Stroke Unit care includes continuous electrocardiogram monitoring (CEM) but the optimal exploitation of the recorded ECG traces is controversial. In this retrospective single-center study, we investigated whether an automated analysis of continuous electrocardiogram monitoring (ACEM), based on a software algorithm, accelerates the detection of AF in patients admitted to our Stroke Unit compared to the routine CEM.

Left Atrial Dilation and Risk of One-Year Readmission after Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source
: Structural left atrial and ventricular abnormalities on the electrocardiogram (ECG) and transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) at the time of ischemic stroke have been associated with morbidity and mortality. Yet, the prognostic impact of the same in embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS), a relevant subtype of ischemic stroke with a unique pathophysiology, has not been well studied to date. Our aim was to assess the predictive impact of left atrio-ventricular ECG and TTE abnormalities on one-year hospital readmission after ESUS from an ongoing single center prospective stroke registry in the U.S.

Supraventricular Extrasystoles on Standard 12-lead Electrocardiogram Predict New Incident Atrial Fibrillation after Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source: The AF-ESUS Study
Background: The diagnosis of covert atrial fibrillation (AF) remains a major challenge to guide secondary prevention of patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS). Aims: We analyzed consecutive ESUS patients from 3 prospective stroke registries to assess whether the presence of supraventricular extrasystoles (SVE) on standard 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) is associated with the detection of AF (primary outcome), stroke recurrence and death (secondary outcomes) during follow-up.

Prognosis of Early-Stage Continuous Electrocardiogram Abnormalities on Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke
To explore the effects of onset time of electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities at an early stage of acute ischemic stroke on patient prognosis. Cardiac dysfunction after stroke is a challenge for clinicians. This is a retrospective study of patients in the neurology departments of 23 hospitals in Shanghai and Wuhan, China.

Detection and Predictors of Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation in Acute Ischemic Stroke and Transient Ischemic Attack Patients in Singapore
Detection of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (pAF) is important for optimal secondary stroke prevention. Data are limited from Asia regarding inpatient occurrence and predictors of pAF to optimize electrocardiographic (ECG) monitoring despite it having nearly two thirds of the world's population and different subtypes of stroke from the West.

Does the Magnitude of the Electrocardiogram QT Interval Dispersion Predict Stroke Outcome?
QT dispersion, maximal interlead difference in QT interval on 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), measures cardiac repolarization abnormalities. Data are conflicting whether QT dispersion predicts adverse outcome in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients. Our objective is to determine if QT dispersion predicts: (1) short-term clinical outcome in AIS, and (2) stroke location (insular versus noninsular cortex).

Electrocardiographic left atrial abnormality in patients presenting with ischemic stroke
P wave indices represent electrocardiographic marker of left atrial pathology. We hypothesized that P wave would be more abnormal in patients presenting with ischemic stroke than a comparable group without ischemic stroke.

Association between electrocardiographic and echocardiographic atrial abnormalities and prognosis in cryptogenic stroke
The role of atrial fibrillation in cryptogenic stroke (CS) is well known. However, the usefulness of left atrial (LA) electrical and morphological abnormalities to identify more disabling strokes in sinus rhythm patients is less studied. We evaluated the association between electrocardiographic P-wave abnormalities and echocardiographic LA measures with neurological disability in patients with cryptogenic stroke.

Prognostic Significance of Fragmented QRS in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke
Stroke is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity in developed countries1 and has a strong relationship with cardiovascular system disorders.2 Due to this relationship, the connection between brain and heart has become increasingly important and neurocardiology has emerged as a popular concept over the recent years.3 Electrocardiographic abnormalities and various cardiac arrhythmias occurring especially after stroke support this phenomenon.4 ST segment and/or T-wave abnormalities without myocardial ischemia,5 left axis deviation, QT prolongation,6 QT dispersion,7 atrial fibrillation (AF), sinus tachycardia, ventricular ...

Abstract 10: Contraindications to Oral Anticoagulation in the Outcomes Registry for Better Informed Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation (ORBIT-AF) Concurrent I Session B: Oral Abstract Presentations on Stroke Topics
Conclusions. Contraindications to OAC therapy among AF patients are common and often due to high bleeding risk. Furthermore, many patients with reported contraindications are taking warfarin, suggesting that many contraindications to warfarin therapy are minor, relative, or temporary.
