Stroke Clinical Trial
— ElectroOfficial title:
Effects of Oral Levosimendan on Ambulatory Electrocardiographic Variables and Cerebrovascular Reactivity in Patients With Recent Stroke or TIA.
The primary objective is to explore the safety of low doses of oral levosimendan in patients with recent history of an ischaemic cerebrovascular event (stroke or TIA). The main focus will be on the evaluation of proarrhythmic potential of the different dose regimens.
