[Neurological characteristics of the ischemic stroke course in patients with atrial fibrillation]
Abstract:
The article contains the results of investigation on particularities of the ischemic stroke course in patients with atrial fibrillation. Neurological particularities of the ischemic stroke course in patients with atrial fibrillation are characterized with disorders of central hemodynamics, worse neurological status, high mortality. Neuroimaging features of ischemic stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation are similar to those in group without arrhythmia (P > 0.05). Ischemic focus is more frequently localized in left cerebral medium artery in all patients. Significant difference in the level of mean systolic and diastolic blood pressure between groups has not been detected (P > 0.05). The majority of patients with cardioembolic stroke had permanent atrial fibrillation (86.4%).
