Prevalence of atrial fibrillation in ischemic stroke and associated risk factors: A hospital-based study in Indonesia
These findings underscore the importance of vigilant screening for AF in ischemic stroke, particularly in patients with CHF and dyslipidemia, to guide appropriate anticoagulation therapy and reduce the risk of recurrent stroke. This study was limited by its single-center design and small sample size. A larger, multicenter study is recommended.
