Background: Ischemic stroke is a major cause of death and disability. Currently, the AHA/ASA guidelines recommend cardiovascular (CV) examination, cardiac enzyme tests, 12-lead ECG in all patients. Combining above parameters with echo, we developed novel Cardiac Stroke Score (CSS). We investigated whether CSS can predict 1-month CV outcomes prospective cohort ischemic Methods: studied 333 patients (53.5% male; mean age 66.7 years) from an ongoing registry at Northwestern Memorial Hospital. The was calculated based on serum troponin (<5, >5), changes suggestive ischemia (absent or present), wall motion abnormalities present) ejection fraction (>50%, <50%), assigning score 0 1 for each parameters. Primary endpoints evaluated month were myocardial infarction (MI), recurrent stroke, readmission, other events, death. Results: From overall cohort, 9 (2.7%) had >5, 115 (35%) ECG, 49 (15%) abnormalities, 43 (13%) EF <50%. There appears to be greater trend between higher total events. Please see table 1. Conclusions: yield predictive value determining1 events following stroke. However, larger more longitudinal follow-up necessary confirm our findings. Table 1: One studied. (*= p<0.05)
