Ischemic stroke occurs when blood flow to a part of the brain is blocked. In some patients, there is also an irregular heartbeat; a condition that can be associated with clot formation. A recent study has examined the relationship between early control of heart rhythm after a stroke and the likelihood of a recurrent stroke or clot formation.
