Predicting Asymptomatic Coronary Artery Disease in Patients With Ischemic Stroke and Transient Ischemic Attack
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is usually considered a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients who have had a stroke or a transient ischemic attack (TIA). Although recurrent strokes occur more commonly than cardiac events over the long term after stroke, cardiac events still account for a greater proportion of mortality. Identifying severe occult coronary artery stenosis, in part...
متن کاملPredicting asymptomatic coronary artery disease in patients with ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack: the PRECORIS score.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Identifying occult coronary artery stenosis may improve secondary prevention of stroke patients. The aim of this study was to derive and validate a simple score to predict severe occult coronary artery stenosis in stroke patients. METHODS We derived a score from a French hospital-based cohort of consecutive patients (n=300) who had an ischemic stroke or a transient isch...
متن کاملOptimizing screening and management of asymptomatic coronary artery disease in patients with stroke and patients with transient ischemic attack.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The feasibility of implementing an expert consensus guideline recommending use of a stroke patient's profile to manage undiagnosed coronary artery disease remains unclear. METHODS Following a guideline-based algorithm, we screened consecutive patients with ischemic stroke and patients with transient ischemic attack for asymptomatic coronary artery disease using the Fram...
متن کاملPredicting recurrent stroke after minor stroke and transient ischemic attack.
The risk of a subsequent stroke following an acute transient ischemic attack or minor stroke is high, with 90-day risk at approximately 10%. Identification of those patients at the highest risk for recurrent stroke following a transient ischemic attack or minor stroke may allow risk-specific management strategies to be implemented, such as hospital admission with expedited work-up for those at ...
متن کاملCoronary Risk Evaluation in Patients With Transient Ischemic Attack and Ischemic Stroke
Stroke and myocardial infarction (MI) share common risk factors and pathological mechanisms, and coronary artery disease (CHD) is an important cause of death in patients with cerebrovascular disease. This Scientific Statement addresses issues in management of the relatively healthy patient with brain ischemia (a transient ischemic attack [TIA] or an ischemic stroke) who does not have recognized...
