May warrant arrhythmia monitoring after neurologic injury; leaves open optimal strategies pending prospective trials.
In Brief Cardiac abnormalities can precipitate neurologic events in patients admitted to the neuroscience ICU. But neurologic injury hasn't always been recognized as a risk factor for cardiac dysrhythmias. This article explores the link between cardiac dysrhythmias and various neurologic disorders and injuries including trauma, ischemic stroke, and intracranial hemorrhage.
