Özet

Electrocardiographic ST-T changes with or without troponin, CK-MB positivity are frequent clinical entities in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Recognizing electrocardiographic ST-T changes as a consequence of acute myocardial ischemia rather than as a nonspecific ECG finding of acute ischemic stroke would benefit stroke patients, since myocardial and cerebral ischemia may co-exist in the same patient due to similar pathogenetic mechanisms.
