Key result

Cerebrovascular accidents were associated with high rates of ECG changes, occurring in 71.5% of subarachnoid haemorrhages, 57.1% of intracerebral haemorrhages, and 41.1% of unclassified cases.

Implication

Frequent ECG changes after cerebrovascular accidents merit clinical attention; observational data leave open prognostic value and management implications.

Cerebrovascular accidents are frequently associated with ECG abnormalities, likely driven by acute increases in left ventricular pressure following elevated intracranial pressure.

Kreus et al. (1969) conducted an observational in Cerebrovascular accidents. Cerebrovascular accidents was evaluated on Incidence of electrocardiographic (ECG) changes. Cerebrovascular accidents were associated with high rates of ECG changes, occurring in 71.5% of subarachnoid haemorrhages, 57.1% of intracerebral haemorrhages, and 41.1% of unclassified cases.
