Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Wiener klinische Wochenschrift"
DOI: 10.1007/s00508-020-01727-5
Abstract: It is assumed that most cases of embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) are of cardioembolic origin. The data about outcome after the treatment with intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) for this type of acute ischemic stroke… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jns.2019.04.008
Abstract: Embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) represents a subgroup of cryptogenic ischemic stroke (CS) distinguished by high probability of an underlying embolic mechanism. There are scarce population-based data regarding the incidence, characteristics and outcomes of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/s0735-1097(20)31071-8
Abstract: Implantable loop recorders (ILR) are frequently placed after embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) to monitor for occult atrial fibrillation. High false alerts from ILR have been described in routine monitoring practice. We sought to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1161/str.54.suppl_1.wp199
Abstract: Introduction: Embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) is suspected to be primarily of cardioembolic origin with ongoing trials evaluating cardiac biomarkers to confirm or refute this theory. Presently, it is unclear whether left ventricular ejection… read more here.

Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source: A Systematic Review and Clinical Update
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Stroke"
DOI: 10.1161/strokeaha.116.016414
Abstract: Background and Purpose— Embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) designates patients with nonlacunar cryptogenic ischemic strokes in whom embolism is the likely stroke mechanism. It has been hypothesized that anticoagulation is more efficacious than antiplatelet… read more here.
