Seizures, electroencephalographic abnormalities, and outcome of ischemic stroke patients
Objective Seizures and electroencephalographic (EEG) abnormalities have been associated with unfavorable stroke functional outcome. However, this association may depend on clinical and imaging stroke severity. We set out to analyze whether epileptic seizures and early EEG abnormalities are predictors of stroke outcome after adjustment for age and clinical/imaging infarct severity. Methods A p...
متن کاملImproving the Prediction of Functional Outcome in Ischemic Stroke Patients
Ischemic stroke is a leading cause of disability and death worldwide among adults. Despite advances in treatment, around one-third of surviving patients still live with long-term disability. The individual prognosis after stroke is extremely dependent on treatment decisions physicians take during the acute phase. In the last ve years several scores such as the ASTRAL, DRAGON and THRIVE scores h...
متن کاملAortic stiffness predicts functional outcome in patients after ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Increased aortic stiffness (measured by carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity) and central augmentation index have been shown to independently predict cardiovascular events, including stroke. We studied whether pulse wave velocity and central augmentation index predict functional outcome after ischemic stroke. METHODS In a prospective study, we enrolled 99 patients with a...
متن کاملFactors predicting good outcome of intravenous thrombolysis in stroke patients before rt-PA administration
Background: To determine whether it is possible to predict intravenous thrombolytic therapy (IVT) outcome after 3 months in acute ischemic stroke patients who are candidate to receive recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA), before rt-PA administration based on their risk factors and some available laboratory results. Methods: We enrolled 118 ischemic stroke patients who were treated ...
متن کاملPredicting functional outcome and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage in patients with acute ischemic stroke: a glimpse into the crystal ball?
W hen encountering a patient with ischemic stroke, a stroke physician needs to make an outcome prediction for several reasons. First, a prediction may help patients and families have more realistic expectations about the patient's future and plan their long-term living arrangements. 1 Second, outcome prediction may be useful in making treatment decisions: for example, avoidance or de-escalation...
