NCT02762552

Brief Summary

In acute ischemic stroke, the identification of an etiology is of major importance to prevent recurrence by providing the best treatment. Because of numerous possible underlying etiologies, the etiological work-up of ischemic stroke includes a wide range of diagnostic tests, which can be invasive, long and expensive. Moreover, many patients receive a diagnosis of undetermined stroke even after all available diagnosis tests are done, precluding optimal treatment.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Pattern of Microembolic signals (MES) recorded by Transcranial-holter monitoring and interpreted by an observer (index test)

    Microembolic signals (MES) will be recorded using Transcranial-holter monitoring (index test) for 4 hours at the acute phase of ischemic stroke. The pattern will be described (frequency, laterality) by the observer interpreting recordings, blinded to stroke etiology as established by the reference standard.

    Day 0 (inclusion)

  • Etiology of ischemic stroke according to ASCOD phenotyping (A: atherosclerosis; S: small-vessel disease; C: cardiac pathology; O: other causes D: dissection) (reference standard)

    Etiologic work-up of ischemic stroke will result in ASCOD classification (reference standard) of etiology. Work-up and classification will be established blind to the pattern of microembolic signals recordede by Transcranial-holter monitoring (index test)

    Month 12
