Successful detection of covert paroxysmal atrial fibrillation due to insertable cardiac monitor in embolic stroke of undetermined source in a patient with situs inversus totalis

Abstract

Abstract Insertable cardiac monitors in patients with situs inversus totalis can detect atrial arrhythmia as a cause of embolic stroke. It is important to premap the position of ICM in order to clearly visualize the P wave.
