[Cardiogenic ischemic strokes: pathogenetic aspects].
Eighty-three patients with acute ischemic stroke (56 men and 27 women, mean age 90.1 +/- 10.8 years) were examined in order to elucidate the significance of paroxysmal heart rhythm disorders and silent myocardial ischemia and determine the pattern of hemorheological changes. Traditional clinical instrumental examinations were supplemented by Holter monitoring and measurements of a wide spectrum of hemostatic and hemorheological values. Cardiogenic ischemic strokes were pathogenetically heterogeneous. Holter monitoring helped detect the significance of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in the pathogenesis of embolic cardiogenic stroke. One of the key factors in development of hemodynamic cardiogenic stroke was transitory bradyarrhythmia and deterioration of left-ventricular contractility. Cardiogenic strokes are associated with hemostatic activation with predominant changes in the plasma hemostasis, which dictates purposeful hemocorrection.
