The Brain Heart Interaction in Acute Stroke

NCT02734082 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 204

Last updated 2016-04-12

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Many studies have shown that acute cerebral dysfunction can impair cardiac function and autonomic control of blood pressure, heart rate and vascular tone, however, the size of the stroke is rarely reported. Involvement of the insular cortex seems to predispose to cardiac damage and autonomic dysfunction. However, it is not clear whether cardiac dysfunction is merely a marker of large strokes or location of the stroke is critical.
