Abstract
Electrocardiogram (ECG) changes are observed in patients with acute stroke and may create confusion with ECG changes found in cardiac disorders. Various ECG changes are observed in patients with acute stroke including rhythm disturbances (like sinus tachycardia, sinus bradycardia, AF, VPc, RBBB, LBBB, etc.) , prolonged QTc interval, ST segment changes, T wave inversion are the most common findings. Atypical flutter in patient with acute stroke is a rare ECG finding observed in our patient.
