[Dynamic ECG in cerebral ischemic vasculopathies].
Fifty-four subjects suffering from TIA or Stroke underwent normal ECG and Holter ECG ten days after ischemic cerebral event in order to point out cardiac dysrhythmias as possible causes of TIA or Stroke. Holter ECG proved positive in 70.3% of subjects versus 38.8% of normal ECG (p < 0.001). We underline the utility of cardiological valuation in patients suffering from TIA or Stroke in order to search for cardiac causes of ischemic cerebral events and to prevent relapses.
