Pharmacists Act on Care Transitions in Stroke (PACT-Stroke): A Systems Approach
This study was a single-center, retrospective assessment of patients contacted by a pharmacist. All data were analyzed descriptively. Our initial evaluation of the Pharmacists Act on Care Transitions in Stroke (PACT-Stroke) service was to quantify and categorize drug-related problems (DRPs), which included drug selection, drug form, dose selection, treatment duration, dispensing, drug use process, patient-related problems, and other. Patients were included if they were adults who experienced an ischemic stroke. Exclusion criteria for this service included pediatric patients, patients with hemorrhagic strokes, patients with...

Systemic thrombolysis for stroke in pregnancy
Pregnancy is an exclusion criterion for all clinical trials that validate alteplase in acute stroke, so our knowledge about its use in this condition is relative only to case reports and case series. Herein, we report the successful use of intravenous recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (rt-PA) in pregnant women with acute stroke. The patient was a 28-year-old who was 16 weeks pregnant. She presented to our hospital 1 hour after a sudden onset of mothor aphasia, hemiparesis, and hypoesthesia on the right side due to incipient ischemia in the left cerebral hemisphere resulting from ipsilateral middle cerebral arte...

Pregnancy-Induced Hypertension and Diabetes and the Risk of Cardiovascular Disease, Stroke, and Diabetes Hospitalization in the Year Following Delivery
We examined hospital discharge diagnoses linked to birth certificate data in the year following delivery for 849,639 births during 1995–2004 in New York City, New York. Adjusted odds ratios characterized the relationship between pregnancy complications and subsequent hospitalization for cardiovascular disease, stroke, and diabetes. Gestational hypertension was related to heart failure (adjusted odds ratio = 2.6, 95% confidence interval: 1.5, 4.5). Preeclampsia was related to all of the outcomes considered except type 1 diabetes, with adjusted odds ratios ranging from 2.0 to 4.1. Gestational diabetes was strongly rela...

Anesthetic Management of Mitochondrial Encephalopathy With Lactic Acidosis and Stroke-Like Episodes (MELAS Syndrome) in a High-Risk Pregnancy: A Case Report
We present the in-hospital course of a 36-year-old gravida 2, para 0 with MELAS syndrome and severe preeclampsia, complicated by hyponatremia, hyperkalemia, and diabetes. A retained placenta with postpartum hemorrhage required urgent instrumental delivery under spinal anesthesia, transfusion, and intensive care unit admission for pulmonary edema, effusions, and atelectasis. Postpartum endometritis and sepsis also were encountered. This is to our knowledge the first case report of obstetric complications in MELAS syndrome and highlights the salient metabolic sequelae of this syndrome.
