缺血性卒中患者心房颤动筛查及相关二级预防研究进展

Research progress on screening and secondary prevention of atrial fibrillation in patients with ischemic stroke

缺血性卒中具有高患病率、病死率、复发率的特点。心房颤动(简称“房颤”)是成人最常见的心律失常,可显著增加缺血性卒中发生及复发风险。作者对缺血性卒中患者房颤筛查及房颤负荷、房颤标志物与缺血性卒中的关系进行综述,阐述了相关的二级预防策略,以期为临床医师早期筛查房颤,预防患者卒中复发提供一定帮助。

Ischemic stroke is characterized by high rates of prevalence,mortality and recurrence.Atrial fibrillation(AF)is the most common arrhythmia in adults.AF significantly increases the risk of ischemic stroke and stroke recurrence.This review summarized the current research progress on AF screening in ischemic stroke patients,the relationship between AF characteristics,biomarkers and ischemic stroke,as well as the research progress on secondary prevention strategies for patients with concomitant AF,aiming to assist clinicians detect AF at an early stage and prevent stroke recurrence.
