Day-by-Day Blood Pressure Variability and Functional Outcome After Acute Ischemic Stroke: Fukuoka Stroke Registry.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The relationship between blood pressure (BP) variability and functional outcome in patients with acute ischemic stroke remains unclear. This study aimed to elucidate whether in-hospital day-by-day BP variability is associated with functional outcome after acute ischemic stroke. METHODS Using the Fukuoka Stroke Registry, we included 2566 patients with a first-ever ischem...
متن کاملAntihypertensive therapy and orthostatic hemodynamic responses in acute stroke.
BACKGROUND It is not known whether antihypertensive medications affect orthostatic blood pressure (BP) regulation in the early period after stroke. Knowledge of this may have implications for clinical practice. METHODS A total of 40 acute ischemic stroke patients (mild-to-moderate severity) taking antihypertensive drugs, and 40 patients with acute stroke of similar severity not receiving such...
متن کاملThe Effect of Intravenous Magnesium Sulfate in Improvement of Acute Ischemic Stroke Induced Disability: A Randomized Double Blinded Clinical Trial
Background: Stroke is the third main cause of death and chronic disabilities in adults, which requires finding neuroprotective drugs to reduce its mortality and morbidity. Objectives: To determine the efficacy of magnesium sulfate as an adjunctive neuroprotective agent in patients with stroke. Materials & Methods: This randomized double-blind clinical trial recruited 120 patients with acute ...
متن کاملO10: Thrombo-Inflammation in Acute Ischemic Stroke
Ischemic stroke has been classified as a merely thrombotic disease, so the main goal of its treatment is the recanalization of the occluded vasculature. However, despite fast restoration of blood circulation, progressive stroke still develops in many patients, which has led to the concept of reperfusion injury. The underlying mechanism is only partly known. Though, it is accepted now, tha...
متن کاملdysphagia in acute ischemic stroke
Introduction: Swallowing dysfunction complicates acute strokes in 25-32% of cases and directly affects patientschr('39') prognosis and recovery. Dysphagia complicates the course of acute strokes through its potential of the development of chest infection, nutritional problems, and dehydration. Dysphagia is also an independent predictor of respiratory morbidity and mortality in acute stroke. In...
