Long-term risk of stroke after traumatic brain injury: a population-based medical record review study - Sperl MA, Esterov D, Ransom JE, Mielke MM, Witkowski JE, Brown AW.
OBJECTIVE To reliably inform secondary prevention strategies and reduce morbidity and mortality after traumatic brain injury (TBI), we sought to understand the long-term risk of stroke after TBI in patients aged 40 years and older in comparison to age- and...

Economic evaluation of endovascular treatment for acute ischaemic stroke in Thailand
Conclusions EVT represents good value for money in the Thai context, both when provided to patients eligible for intravenous alteplase, and when provided alone to those who are ineligible for intravenous alteplase.

Robot-Assisted Therapy in Upper Extremity Hemiparesis: Overview of an Evidence-Based Approach
Conclusion Robotic therapy has matured and represents an embodiment of a paradigm shift in neurorehabilitation following a stroke: instead of focusing on compensation, it affords focus in ameliorating the impaired limb in line with concepts of neuroplasticity. This technology-based treatment provides intensity, interactivity, flexibility, and adaptiveness to patient's performance and needs. Furthermore, it increases the productivity of rehabilitation care. Of course, efficiency must be discussed within a local perspective. For example, following the cost containment shown in the VA ROBOTICS study (46), the UK Nati...

Could exercise be as effective as medication?
Conclusion The researchers found that there are very few trials that directly compare exercise with drug therapy for any condition. They were only able to find enough trials to be able to analyse results for four major conditions. They found that exercise reduced death rates for people after a stroke (although this analysis has limitations and should be interpreted cautiously), and that drug therapy with diuretics improved death rates for people with heart failure. They did not find any difference between exercise and drug therapy for death rates after a heart attack or in people with pre-diabetes. There were several limit...

Abstract 257: A Long-Term Comparison of Clinical and Economic Outcomes with Novel Oral Anti- Coagulants Session Title: Poster Session II
Conclusions: While using NOACs in NVAF treatment raises drug costs compared to current practice, it also reduces stroke incidence. Among NOACs, apixaban does so at lower cost, with fewer bleeding events than either dabigatran or rivaroxaban.

The IMPact of UntReated NOn-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation on Short-TErm clinical and economic outcomes in the US Medicare population: the IMPROVE-AF model
CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that increased overall OAC use has a positive clinical benefit on the annual number of ischemic stroke events and deaths avoided in the Medicare population, while maintaining a modest increase in the overall BI to the Medicare system.PMID:34415229 | DOI:10.1080/13696998.2021.1970954

Healthcare resource utilization and costs of cardiovascular events in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in Germany - results of a claims database study
CONCLUSION: CV events in ASCVD patients pose a considerable clinical burden on patients and cause significant costs for the German statutory healthcare system.PMID:36330899 | DOI:10.1080/13696998.2022.2141964

Using Phase-Based Costing of Real-World Data to Inform Decision–Analytic Models for Atrial Fibrillation
Conclusions Real-world Canadian data and a phase-based costing approach were used to estimate short- and long-term costs associated with AF-related major clinical events. The results of this study can also inform decision–analytic models for AF.

Stimulation corticale non invasive et AVC moteur
Publication date: June 2017 Source:Neurophysiologie Clinique/Clinical Neurophysiology, Volume 47, Issue 3 Author(s): Friedhelm Hummel In Europe, every year 1.5 million new patients suffer from a stroke with a large part of them being significantly impaired from motor, language and other symptoms. Despite the recent developments in acute stroke therapy (e.g., thrombolysis, thrombectomy, stroke units) still less than 15% of the patients recover to a degree that they get back to normal life. This makes stroke the main course of long-term disability with major impact on patients’ professional and private life, the health sy...
