Factors affecting changes in blood pressure after acute stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We sought to establish the pattern of blood pressure (BP) change after hospitalization for acute hemispheric stroke. METHODS In 292 patients from the Leicester teaching hospitals with acute hemispheric stroke within the previous 24 hours (139 men; median age, 75 years [range, 42 to 98 years]), we prospectively studied BP changes between admission, 24 hours, 1 week, and ...

Elevated systolic blood pressure levels (> or =160 mmHg) are a common complication of acute stroke, affecting up to 60% of patients, and providing an immediate management dilemma in the 40% of acute stroke patients on pre-existing antihypertensive therapy. There are theoretical reasons for both lowering blood pressure in the acute stroke situation, as well as leaving raised levels untreated. Fu...

See Articles pages 364 and 374 Although great advances have been made in stroke medicine in the past two decades, some questions about treatment in the acute phase of stroke remain. One such question is how to manage blood pressure? Blood pressure is often increased in acute ischaemic and haemorrhagic stroke, and fi ndings from epidemiological studies suggest that high blood pressure in the acu...

متن کاملBlood pressure changes after stroke: abolishing the white-coat effect.
The perfusion pressure in the cerebral capillaries combined with arterial blood pressure creates shear stresses that deform RBCs as they traverse microvessels. Our results show that in cerebral infarction, especially in hypertensive patients, RBCs are more sensitive to lowered shear stresses. Hence, hypotension in acute stroke might induce microcirculatory disorders because capillaries can be w...
