Outcome measures
Primary outcome
Primary outcome is a clinical presentation at admittance with an isolated aphasia in patients with a cardio-embolic stroke versus a presentation of isoplated aphasia in patients with an atherothrombotic stroke.
The presence type and severity of aphasia are investigated by the Screeling Test and the Boston naming test, within 5 days of admittance.
Secondary outcome
Modified Rankin scale score at three months.
Background summary
The purpose of this prospective, observational one- centre study is to evaluate the relation between atrial fibrillation and clinical characteristics, including isolated aphasia, in a population of patients with ischemic stroke due to either atrial fibrillation or atherotrhombotic origin in order to obtain additional predictive factors of the cardioembolic origin in stroke. we presume that a presentation of stroke with isolated aphasia signifies a cardioembolic stroke.
