متن کاملSerial assessment of acute stroke using the NIH Stroke Scale.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Stroke Scale has been used in clinical trials to assess neurological outcome after investigational therapy for acute stroke. We used the NIH Stroke Scale to study the degree and time course of recovery in patients with acute stroke who were treated with conventional therapy. METHODS We serially assessed 50 patients with ischemic s...
متن کاملPrediction of functional outcome after stroke: comparison of the Orpington Prognostic Scale and the NIH Stroke Scale.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE This study compared the ability of 2 stroke impairment scales, Orpington Prognostic Scale and National Institutes of Health (NIH) Stroke Scale, to predict disability as measured by the Barthel activities of daily living (ADL) Index and higher level of self-reported physical functioning as measured by the SF-36 physical functioning index (PFI) at 1, 3, and 6 months after s...
متن کاملRetrospective assessment of initial stroke severity: comparison of the NIH Stroke Scale and the Canadian Neurological Scale.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The NIH Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and the Canadian Neurological Scale (CNS) have been reported to be useful for the retrospective assessment of initial stroke severity. However, unlike the CNS, the NIHSS requires detailed neurological assessments that may not be reflected in all patient records, potentially limiting its applicability. We assessed the reliability of the retrosp...
متن کاملO12: The Heart and the Brain: Stroke Induced Heart Damage
Cardiac diseases are common post-stroke and are associated with increased morbidity and mortality. One possible mechanism of acute cardiac injury is the neurogenic myocardial damage, where the cerebral injury is disturbing the normal sympathetic and parasympathetic neuronal outflow to the heart leading to cardiac damage including myocardial infarctions. The exact mechanism is not completely und...
