Brief Summary: There are many reports about the association of coronary artery disease CAD and cerebral artery stenosis CAS which had been proved to induce stroke and cognition decline after the revascularization including coronary bypass surgery CABG or percutaneous coronary intervention Perfusion defect on nuclear brain scan is also noted to correlate with these neurological complications On the other hand the perioperative arrhythmia and following cerebral embolism was also attributed to be one factor inducing such neurological hazards

In the patients with coexistent CAD and CAS 1st group and also the patients scheduled for CABG or percutaneous coronary intervention PCI 2nd group we the researchers at Far Eastern Memorial Hospital attempted to integrate all the parameters mention above including angiography of coronary and cerebral system quantitative analysis of nuclear brain scan biochemical profile and signals of a new ambulatory device which could record the electrocardiograph ECG and electroencephalograph EEG simultaneously in order to define the correlation between them A chorological relation between EEG signals and ECG signals is our first target to be worked out Thereafter we hope to establish a regression model of all involved parameters according to the relation Such a model we believe is essential not only to explain the post-CABG neurological complications but to prevent them

Furthermore for the undetermined ischemic stroke patients who had no obvious culprit artery or embolism source the paroxysmal arrhythmia had long been regarded as the cause Whether a paroxysmal atrial fibrillation which had not been disclosed by routine ECG could induce most of such a stroke is still not known With this new ambulatory device which could record the electrocardiograph ECG and electroencephalograph EEG simultaneously we want to answer the question
