Prevalence of left atrial appendage thrombus in patients with acute ischaemic stroke and sinus rhythm: a cross-sectional study
Objective Thrombi originating in the left atrial appendage (LAA) mainly form because of atrial fibrillation (AF) and are a known cause of cardioembolic stroke. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of LAA thrombus in patients with acute ischaemic stroke (AIS) and sinus rhythm on 12-lead ECG.Methods...
