Dysphagia after ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke: A propensity-matched 20-year analysis of the national inpatient sample
Post-stroke dysphagia (PSD) is a common and debilitating complication of acute stroke associated with increased mortality and morbidity.1,2 Globally, 12.2 million strokes occur every year and 1 in 4 adults over the age of 25 will have a stroke within their lifetime.3 Of these, 87% of strokes are considered ischemic strokes (AIS) and 10% are hemorrhagic (ICH), both of which are associated with dysphagia as an adverse event.4 Recent studies have found that the prevalence of long-term PSD ranges from 42-50% and was an independent risk factor for prolonged hospital stay, institutionalization after discharge, poorer functional ...

Low (0 –5) Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score on admission predictive of worse functional outcome after mechanical thrombectomy for anterior circulation large vessel occlusion
ConclusionsASPECTS values  ≤ 5 correspond with worse long-term functional improvement (mRS scores >  2) in patients undergoing MT for ACLVO-related AIS. Other independent determinants of functional outcomes after MT are age, baseline NIHSS score, HbA1c concentration, and successful recanalization.

LB-004 Novel saccular endovascular aneurysm lattice (SEAL device) pre-seal it early clinical feasibility trial: procedural, 24-hours, and 3-month safety and effectiveness independent core lab adjudicated outcomes
ConclusionThe final procedural, 24-hour, and 3-month follow-up results of the PRE-SEAL-IT trial demonstrated promising occlusion rates at post-procedural, 24-hour, and 3 months follow-up with no safety concerns.DisclosuresB.

LB-012 Incidence of intracranial hemorrhage after thrombectomy for large core infarcts: a sub analysis of the select2 trial
ConclusionIn a subset analysis of SELECT2 trial, patients receiving EVT had a higher rate of any intracranial hemorrhage when compared with those receiving medical management. Although EVT patients with ICH had a higher incidence of early neurological worsening, there was no difference in 90-day mRS, mortality and discharge dispositions between those with or without ICH.DisclosuresM.

Atrial fibrillation and anticoagulation in patients hospitalised for stroke in the REGIONS Care Study
CONCLUSIONS: Although anticoagulation prescribing in AF has improved, one third of stroke patients with known AF were not taking an anticoagulant prior to admission and the majority did not appear to have an absolute contraindication offering a multidisciplinary opportunity for improvement. There were no significant differences for Māori and non-urban populations in anticoagulant prescribing.PMID:37536308
