Assessment of Blood Pressure and Heart Rate Related Variables in Acute Stroke Patients Receiving Intravenous Antihypertensive Medication Infusions
ConclusionsWe found that SBP fluctuations were associated with in-hospital mortality in patients with acute stroke. IV antihypertensive medication reduced SBP but did not reduce SBP fluctuations in this observational study. Our results highlight the need for optimizing therapeutic interventions to reduce SBP fluctuations in patients with acute stroke.
