Article Abstract
With the ever-expanding population of patients infected with SARS-CoV-2, we are learning more about the immediate and long-term clinical manifestations of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Ischemic stroke (IS) is now one of the well-documented additional clinical manifestations of COVID-19. Most COVID-19 related IS cases have been categorized as cryptogenic or embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS), which are most often suspected to have an undiagnosed cardioembolic source. COVID-19 is known to also cause cardiac dysfunction, heart failure, and atrial arrhythmias (AA), but the long-term impact of this cardiac dysfunction on stroke incidence is unknown. With millions afflicted with COVID-19 and the ever-rising infection rate, it is important to consider the potential long-term impact of COVID-19 on future IS incidence. Accomplishing these goals will require novel strategies that allow for diagnosis, data capture, and prediction of future IS risk using tools that are adaptable to the evolving clinical challenges in patient care delivery and research.
