Is atrial fibrillation associated with poor outcome after thrombolysis?

Original language description

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is considered a predictor for severe stroke and poor outcome. The aim was to evaluate whether AF is associated with poor outcome in acute ischemic stroke (IS) patients treated with intravenous thrombolysis (IVT). In a retrospective study, 157 consecutive IS patients (98 males, mean age 67.3 +/- 10.2 years), treated with IVT within 3 hours from stroke onset, were divided into two groups according to presence/absence of AF. Neurological deficit was evaluated using the NIHSS on admission, 24 hours, and 7 days later, while the 90-day clinical outcome was assessed using the modified Rankin Scale (mRS). A total of 66 patients (38 males) presented with AF. The baseline NIHSS was 13.3 +/- 5.4 in AF and 11.0 +/- 5.1 points in non-AF patients (P = 0.006). AF patients had arterial occlusions more frequently in the baseline MRA (54.5% in AF versus 25.3% in non-AF, P = 0.0002). No differences were found between groups in clinical .... etc.
