| Popis: | Introduction: Diastolic dysfunction, particularly with elevated left ventricle filling pressure (LVFP) is known to be a strong independent predictor of all-cause mortality and major cardiac events. There is limited data on the role of diastolic function in ischemic stroke. We hypothesize that diastolic dysfunction with elevated LVFP is more likely to be present in patients with Embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) compared to non-cardioembolic stroke and is associated with AF on cardiac monitoring in the ESUS group. Methods: This is a single center retrospective study that included adult patients with a diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke from 2014 to 2016. We excluded patients with confirmed cardioembolic stroke and those with indeterminate diastolic function. ESUS was defined as no ipsilateral stenoses ≥ 50%, cardiac telemetry for at least two weeks without evidence of atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter, and a LVEF ≥ 30%. A transthoracic echocardiogram was performed and interpreted by cardiologists. Baseline patient characteristics and clinical variables were compared among patients with and without diastolic dysfunction. Potential associations between diastolic dysfunction, ESUS and AF detection in ESUS patients were assessed using logistic regression. Results: There were 509 patients, the mean age was 64.19, 54.81% were male, and 146 had LVFP data. Diastolic dysfunction overall was not associated with ESUS (adjusted OR 1.44, 95% CI 0.91-2.28, p = 0.125) or AF detection on cardiac monitoring (adjusted OR 1.87, 95% CI 0.75-4.70, p = 0.183). However, diastolic dysfunction and elevated LVFP was associated with ESUS subtype (adjusted OR 2.26, 95% CI 1.03-4.93, p = 0.041) and AF detection on cardiac monitoring (adjusted OR 3.58, 95% CI 1.07-12.01, p = 0.039). Conclusion: Our study suggests that diastolic dysfunction with elevated LVFP is associated with ESUS stroke subtype and AF detection on cardiac monitoring. Therefore, the presence of diastolic dysfunction with elevated LVFP may identify a population of stroke patients more likely to have ESUS, particularly in the setting of occult AF. Studies are needed to confirm our findings and test the safety and efficacy of anticoagulation in patients with ESUS and diastolic dysfunction with elevated LVFP. |
