To determine if prolonged P-wave dispersion is a risk factor for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in patients admitted with ischemic cerebrovascular disease at Hospital Víctor Lazarte Echegaray, during the period 2022-2023. Methods: We conducted an observational case-control analytical study. Our sample consisted of 72 patients admitted with ischemic cerebrovascular disease, divided into two groups: 36 patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation found on Holter monitoring (case group) and 36 patients without paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (control group), who met the selection criteria. Results: Of the case group, 80.6% presented prolonged P-wave dispersion; while of the control group, 61.1% (p=0.070). No difference was found between both study groups according to age, sex, obesity and hypertension, but for diabetes mellitus: 41.7% in case group and 19.4% in control group (p=0.041). Multivariate analysis showed an OR of 2.68 (0.90-8.00, p=0.078) for prolonged P-wave dispersion, and an OR of 3.00 (1.02-8.85, p=0.047) for diabetes mellitus. Conclusion: Prolonged P-wave dispersion is not a statistically significant risk factor for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease.
