Antibiotics, Anticoagulation, and Stroke
We retrospectively reviewed the clinical characteristics and outcomes of 61 patients with 62 episodes of prosthetic valve endocarditis, paying particular attention to neurologic complications (stroke). Atypical features of the group included a benign outcome of early postoperative infection (18% mortality) and a high stroke morbidity and mortality rate with Staphylococcus epidermidis infections...
متن کاملAcute anticoagulation following cardioembolic stroke.
Whether acute anticoagulation after cardioembolic stroke affords substantial protection against early recurrent emboli or an unacceptable risk of hemorrhage remains controversial. To assess this further, we evaluated 121 consecutive patients with acute cardioembolic stroke. Forty-nine were therapeutically anticoagulated within 96 hours of stroke onset, and 41 received no anticoagulants within t...

متن کاملAnticoagulation after Anterior Myocardial Infarction and the Risk of Stroke
BACKGROUND Survivors of anterior MI are at increased risk for stroke with predilection to form ventricular thrombus. Commonly patients are discharged on dual antiplatelet therapy. Given the frequency of early coronary reperfusion and risk of bleeding, it remains uncertain whether anticoagulation offers additional utility. We examined the effectiveness of anticoagulation therapy for the preventi...
متن کاملIntensity of anticoagulation and clinical outcomes in acute cardioembolic stroke: the Fukuoka Stroke Registry.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The relationship between the intensity of anticoagulation at the onset of acute cardioembolic stroke and clinical outcome after stroke is unclear. Here, we elucidated the relationship between prothrombin time-international normalized ratio (PT-INR) values on admission and clinical outcomes in patients with acute cardioembolic stroke. METHODS A total of 602 patients from...
