Incidence and Outcomes of Patients With Early Cardiac Complications After Intracerebral Hemorrhage: A Report From VISTA.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The incidence and outcomes of early cardiac complications in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) are poorly understood. These cardiac complications may be part of the so-called stroke-heart syndrome in patients with ICH. We investigated this issue in an individual patient data pooled analysis from an international repository of clinical trial data.

Methods

We used the Virtual International Stroke Trials Archive to investigate the incidence of cardiac complications within 30 days post-ICH or acute ischemic stroke (AIS). These complications included acute coronary syndrome encompassing myocardial injury, heart failure/left ventricular dysfunction, atrial fibrillation/atrial flutter, other arrhythmia/ECG abnormalities, and cardiorespiratory arrest. We used p
