Abstract

Aim: Acute ischemic stroke is an Important cause of morbidity and mortality. Fragmented QRS (fQRS) is a depolarization disorder, which may be easily detected in 12-lead superficial electrocardiography (ECG), which displays a conduction delay caused by myocardial fibrotic tissue. Although the association of FORS with ischemic heart disease is well known, there is no dear information about its relationship with ischemic stroke. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between fQRS and ischemic stroke.
