Summary

The PROPhecy study aims to detect the presence of atrial fibrillation/flutter in patients who have suffered an embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) using 30 day cardiac monitoring.

We hypothesize that the presence of any of the following features on long-term heart rhythm monitoring (holter monitoring) or heart ultrasound (transthoracic echocardiogram), either individually or in combination, will have additional predictive value for the detection of atrial fibrillation lasting 30 seconds or longer on 30 day holter monitoring:

* greater than 100 premature atrial beats in 24 hours
* greater than 2 runs of atrial tachycardia (4 or more non-sinus beats) in 24 hours
* Left atrial enlargement on transthoracic echocardiogram

Conditions

  • Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source
