Neurocardiology

Subclinical cardiac disorders, including atrial fibrillation, atrial cardiopathy, and patent foramen ovale, are increasingly recognized as modifiable risk factors and causes of stroke; related treatments, such as left atrial exclusion and PFO closure, have become standard of care. Techniques developed originally in the treatment of acute myocardial infarction 30 or more years ago have now become evidence-based standard of care for patients with acute ischemic stroke.
Mitchell Elkind, MD, MS is a tenured Professor of Neurology and Epidemiology at Columbia University, and Chief of the Division of Neurology Clinical Outcomes Research and Population Sciences (Neuro CORPS) in the Neurology Department. Dr. Elkind received his medical degree from Harvard Medical School and trained in Internal Medicine at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and in Neurology at Massachusetts General Hospital, both in Boston, MA. He completed a fellowship in Vascular Neurology and Neuroepidemiology at Columbia University Medical Center under the mentorship of Dr. Ralph Sacco. Dr. Elkind holds a Master’s degree in Epidemiology from Columbia’s Mailman School of Public Health. His research focuses on stroke prevention, inflammatory and infectious biomarkers in stroke risk prediction, atrial cardiopathy, immune therapy for acute stroke, and vascular causes of cognitive aging. He has published over 600 articles on stroke, dementia, cardiac diseases, and related topics. Dr. Elkind served as President of the American Heart Association (AHA) 2020-2021, and he is currently the Immediate Past President. He co-chaired the writing committee for the 2012 scientific statement on the inclusion of stroke as an outcome and risk equivalent in vascular disease risk scores, and currently serves as co-chair of the stroke section of the annual statistical update.
