Use of the insertable Holter with remote detection in the etiological diagnosis of cryptogenic stroke: Analysis of 73 patients.

Introduction: Cryptogenic stroke constitutes 25% of all ischemic strokes, of which 20-30% are due to atrial fibrillation (AF). With the aim of increasing the detection rate, implantable long-term monitoring devices have emerged. The study of the profile of the ideal candidate subsidiary to such monitoring would provide a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying this subtype of stroke.
