Summary

Prospective mono-center diagnostic study determining potential discrepancies in identifying atrial fibrillation by intraindividually comparing different types of follow-up strategies:

1. How many stroke patients with atrial fibrillation are missed by standard stroke unit 24h- electrocardiography, and
2. what is the effectiveness of the extended invasive and non-invasive ECG analysis tools to detect atrial fibrillation in stroke patients?
