Preoperative noninvasive coronary risk stratification in candidates for carotid endarterectomy.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Patients with symptomatic carotid stenosis who are candidates for carotid endarterectomy are at high short- and long-term risk of coronary events. To stratify patients at different risk of coronary events we investigated the usefulness of a noninvasive preoperative cardiological workup. METHODS We studied 172 consecutive patients admitted to the Neurosurgical Department...
متن کاملMulticenter review of preoperative risk factors for endarterectomy for asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The benefit of carotid endarterectomy is highly dependent on surgical risk. However, little data are available concerning factors affecting the risk of endarterectomy performed for asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis outside the setting of a randomized controlled trial. The purpose of this study was to analyze the impact of potential preoperative risk factors on the freq...
متن کاملMulticenter review of preoperative risk factors for carotid endarterectomy in patients with ipsilateral symptoms.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Randomized clinical trials have shown that carotid endarterectomy decreases the risk of subsequent stroke in patients with high-grade carotid stenosis and ipsilateral transient ischemic attack or minor stroke. The benefit of surgery is highly dependent on surgical risk. We previously found that patients with ipsilateral hemispheric symptoms were at greater risk of carotid...
متن کاملCarotid endarterectomy. Complications and preoperative assessment of risk.
A system of grouping patients according to preoperative evaluation of risk of carotid endarterectomy is presented. The primary complications of this surgical procedure were myocardial infarction and residual mild to severe neurologic deficit. Neurologically stable patients without medical or angiographically determined risk factors (group 1, 129 patients) have a risk of 1%. Neurologically stabl...
متن کاملRisk factors for death or stroke after carotid endarterectomy: observations from the Ontario Carotid Endarterectomy Registry.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Carotid endarterectomy is an effective method for preventing strokes if patients do not suffer adverse perioperative outcomes. The purpose of this study was to identify preoperative patient risk factors for adverse outcomes (death or nonfatal stroke) after carotid endarterectomy through the use of a large population-based registry from Ontario, Canada. METHODS Medical r...
