Figure 1. — The cardio-stroke interaction for prevention and treatment of stroke and related complications.

Cardiac diseases and injuries can be both cause and consequence of stroke. Cardiac pathologies may often remain undetected with the stroke being the first clinical incident.

LV: left ventricle; BP: blood pressure.
