The population study used determines the features of the course of strokes or the so-called stroke pattern in patients with cardio-embolic infarction. In a prospective population study for 14 years (1985-1997), cardio-embolic infarction was diagnosed in 882 (37.9%) of 2330 patients who had had the first acute cerebrovascular accident.
