Nimodipine and perfusion changes after stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Meta-analysis of previous trials of oral nimodipine in acute stroke has suggested a benefit when commenced within 12 hours of onset. We sought to study the effect of oral nimodipine on reperfusion after acute stroke and the relation between reperfusion and outcome. METHODS Fifty patients with acute middle cerebral artery territory cortical infarction were blindly random...
متن کاملComplications after dipyridamole infusion in myocardial perfusion SPECT and correlation with homodynamic changes [Persian]
Introduction: In Iran dipyridamole is the main agent used for coronary dilatation before myocardial perfusion SPECT. This study tries to evaluate the side effects after dipyridamole infusion and its relation with hemodynamic changes. Methods: We studied 300 patients who referred to myocardial perfusion scan. The exclusion criteria were: 1) AV block degree 2 or more, 2) Asthma 3) Sick sinu...
متن کاملVery Early Nimodipine Use in Stroke (VENUS)
Backgound and Purpose—The Very Early Nimodipine Use in Stroke (VENUS) trial was designed to test the hypothesis that early treatment with nimodipine has a positive effect on survival and functional outcome after stroke. This was suggested in a previous meta-analysis on the use of nimodipine in stroke. However, in a recent Cochrane review we were unable to reproduce these positive results. This ...
متن کاملEarly changes of tissue perfusion after tissue plasminogen activator in hyperacute ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE it is hypothesized that tissue plasminogen activator rescues brain tissue by improving perfusion. In this study, we aimed to examine acute regional perfusion changes and how they influence infarction and clinical outcome. METHODS three sequential MR scans were performed in 15 tissue plasminogen activator-treated patients within 3.5 (tp1), at 6 hours (tp2), and at 1 mont...
متن کاملEffect of intravenous nimodipine on blood pressure and outcome after acute stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The Intravenous Nimodipine West European Stroke Trial (INWEST) found a correlation between nimodipine-induced reduction in blood pressure (BP) and an unfavorable outcome in acute stroke. We sought to confirm this correlation with and without adjustment for prognostic variables and to investigate outcome in subgroups with increasing levels of BP reduction. METHODS Patien...
