Outcome, Prevalence and Risk Factors for Stroke Following Pediatric Heart Transplantation: An Analysis of the ISHLT Registry
In the ISHLT Registry, cerebrovascular accidents are the fifth commonest cause for mortality following pediatric heart transplantation (PHTx); but details are lacking in the reported literature. The purpose of this analysis of the ISHLT registry was to determine the prevalence, risk factors and outcomes of stroke after PHTx.

CHA2DS2-Vasc and HAS-BLED Scores as Predictors of Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Stroke Risk After Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation
CHA2DS2-VASc score predicts thromboembolic event risk and HAS-BLED score predicts major bleeding risk in patients on anticoagulation with atrial fibrillation. We aimed to evaluate if these scoring systems would be predictive of ischemic stroke and intracranial bleeding complications following continuous-flow left ventricular assist device (CF-LVAD) implantation.

Outcome, incidence and risk factors for stroke after pediatric heart transplantation: An analysis of the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation registry
In the registry of the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation (ISHLT), cerebrovascular accidents are the fifth most common cause for mortality after pediatric heart transplantation (PHTx), but details are lacking in the literature. The purpose of this analysis of the ISHLT registry was to determine the prevalence, risk factors and outcomes of stroke after PHTx.

Characteristics and Outcome of Patients with Stroke After Lung Transplant Surgery in the Lung Allocation Score Era
With introduction of lung allocation (LAS) in 2005, increasingly sicker patients are being transplanted every year. The current study was conducted to determine the incidence of stroke early after lung transplantation (LT), describe the recipient characteristics that are independently associated with it and evaluate its impact on 1 year survival.

Laterality of Cerebral Artery Hemodynamics in Continuous-Flow LVAD Patients: A Pilot Study in Relation to Stroke
A predominance of ischemic stroke in the right hemisphere among patients with continuous-flow left ventricular assist device (LVAD) support has been noted. The reasons for this clinical presentation are unknown, though others have hypothesized greater blood flow to the right common carotid artery. Since arterial pulsatility and blood velocity (as a surrogate for flow) have been associated with cerebrovascular complications, we hypothesized that significant differences in the pulsatility and/or Vmax of the left and right middle cerebral artery may be present in LVAD patients.

Increased Aortic Stiffness is Associated with Higher Rates of Stroke, GI-bleeding and Pump Thrombosis in Continuous-Flow Left Ventricular Assist Device Patients
In the general population, increased aortic stiffness (kAo) is associated with risk of cardiovascular events. Continuous-flow left ventricular assist device (CF-LVAD) pts have been reported to have increased kAo. The association between kAo and common adverse events (AEs), including stroke, gastrointestinal bleed (GIB) and pump thrombosis (PT) are unknown in CF-LVAD pts.

Early Elevated Plasma Free Hemoglobin Predicts Occurrence of Thromboembolic Stroke during Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Support
Hemolysis creates a prothrombotic state by platelet activation; however, its impact on thromboembolic (TE) stroke during venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) support is unknown.

Stroke After LVAD: Does Age Matter? A Sex-based Analysis
The risk of stroke in women with left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) appears to be higher than men. Some authors suggested that variances in hormonal influences occurring with age might contribute to the increased thrombotic profile potentially acquired by some women.

Increased Risk of Stroke and Death in Ventricular Assist Device Patients Varies by ISHLT Infection Category: An INTERMACS Analysis
Ventricular assist device (VAD) patients experience infections, which increase the risk of stroke and mortality. We aimed to characterize key differences in clinical outcomes for VAD patients based on the ISHLT categorization of infections: VAD-specific (e.g. pump component related), VAD-related (e.g. bloodstream infection, BSI) and non-VAD infections (e.g. pneumonia).
