Evaluation of cardiac-electrophysiological balance according to National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score at admission and discharge in acute ischemic stroke patients: A pilot study

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The main objectives of this investigation were to determine whether there were any relationships between corrected cardiac-electrophysiological balance value and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale scores at admission and discharge in patients with acute ischemic stroke and to assess whether cardiac-electrophysiological balance value was an independent predictor of high National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale scores (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score ≥5). METHODS: In this retrospective and observational study, 231 consecutive adult patients with ...
