Andrea Zini on Atrial Fibrillation Detection After Acute Ischemic Stroke

Andrea Zini, Director of the Neurology Unit and Metropolitan Stroke Network – Maggiore Hospital – Bologna, shared on LinkedIn:

”Our last paper about BNP and TTE parameters as biomarkers for predicting new AF detection after acute ischemic stroke

2,411 patients at the Bologna Stroke Center

BNP ⩾150 pg/ml + LA enlargement have a strong association (aOR 4.74, 95% CI 3.47–6.48,p < 0.001) for predicting new AF detection at 3 months”
