The population of Western Sydney has a unique demographic with lower socioeconomic status and a culturally and linguistically diverse population. This study aims to investigate the demographics and cardiovascular risk factors of patients in Western Sydney, focusing on the prevalence and profile of cardioembolic (CE) strokes and embolic strokes of undetermined source (ESUS).</span></div></div><div><h3>Method</h3><div><span>Prospective data were collected in 463 patients with ischaemic stroke presenting to a tertiary centre in Western Sydney, who underwent predischarge transthoracic echocardiography. Patients with </span>haemorrhagic strokes<span> or unclear stroke diagnosis were excluded. Analysis of stroke subtype (CE, ESUS, or non-embolic) and clinical characteristics was performed based on age, gender, and prior atrial fibrillation (AF) prevalence.</span></div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div><span><span><span>Of the 463 patients, 147 (32%) had CE strokes, and 147 (32%) had ESUS. Cardioembolic (CE) strokes were associated with older age (≥65 years) and a history of congestive cardiac failure. Older patients had higher rates of hypertension, </span>ischaemic heart disease, AF, and congestive heart failure. History of AF was present in 67 patients (14.5%); however, only 51% received </span>anticoagulation<span><span> before admission despite a low bleeding risk. The transthoracic echocardiography characteristics of ESUS/non-embolic strokes differed from those of CE strokes; 20% of patients with ESUS had an enlarged </span>left atrium, suggesting a subset of patients with ESUS with a left atrial </span></span>myopathy.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><div>Patients with ischaemic stroke in Western Sydney have a high prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors which were often undertreated. Half of the patients with prior AF did not receive anticoagulation despite low bleeding risk, indicating a gap in optimal stroke prevention. There were distinct echocardiographic characteristics among stroke subtypes. Further analysis of left atrium parameters may provide greater insights into the pathogenesis and prevention of embolic strokes.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":13000,"journal":{"name":"Heart, Lung and Circulation","volume":"33 11","pages":"Pages 1582-1592"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141497905","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
