Incidence and consequences of resuming oral anticoagulant therapy following hematuria and risks of ischemic stroke and major bleeding in patients with atrial fibrillation
In conclusion, more and more patients who suffer a hematuria while on oral anticoagulant therapy resume NOAC. Patients resuming NOAC have similar risks of ischemic stroke/systemic embolism and major bleeding compared with those resuming VKA.

Reduction in the doses of direct oral anticoagulants and risk of ischemic stroke events: A hospital survey.
Abstract Inappropriately reduced doses (IRDs) of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are common in clinical practice. We performed a retrospective review using electronic medical records of St. Marianna University School of Medicine Hospital (a 1200-bed teaching hospital in Japan) to address the prevalence of IRDs and patient-related factors that result in IRDs. We also surveyed DOAC-treated patients who were hospitalized due to a stroke during the 5-year study period to analyze the association between stroke events and IRDs. We found that one in five patients who were newly prescribed a DOAC was treated with IRDs....

C-reactive protein levels are associated with early cardiac complications or death in patients with acute ischemic stroke: a propensity-matched analysis of a global  federated health from the TriNetX network
AbstractThe role of inflammation in predicting early cardiac complications among stroke patients is unclear. Electronic medical records from TriNetX, a global federated health research network, were used for this retrospective analysis. Patients with ischemic stroke and C-Reactive Protein (CRP) levels measured within 24  h post-stroke were categorized into three groups: (i) <  1 mg/L, (ii)1–3 mg/L and (iii) >  3 mg/L. The primary outcome was a composite outcome of cardiac complications (heart failure (HF), ischemic heart disease, atrial fibrillation (AF), ventricular arrhythmias and Takotsubo cardiomyop...

Age, Gender and Racial Disparities in Acute Stroke Therapy in a Large Non-Academic Health System (P3.261)
Conclusions:We confirmed known disparities in ATT rates between PSC and AH. No disparity in age or gender were identified in this population. Racial disparity was problematic because of a small number of non-white patients and a number of patients with no racial data captured. Better racial data collection, analysis of access to care, and care process modeling might impact these findings.Disclosure: Dr. Taylor has nothing to disclose.

Mortality and Stroke Recurrence in a Rehabilitation Cohort of Patients with Cerebral Infarcts and Chagas Disease
Conclusions: Cardiac conditions did not correlate with mortality or recurrence. Age was a protective factor against recurrence, probably due to cumulative risk of IS over time, while initial mRS was associated with both outcomes. Treating diseases such as DM and bladder dysfunction, and early treatment to reduce the initial mRS could potentially prevent both outcomes; also, establishing a correct etiological diagnosis is important.Eur Neurol 2018;79:177 –184

Endovascular Treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke Under General Anesthesia: Predictors of Good Outcome
Background: The choice of anesthetic technique, general anesthesia (GA) versus Monitored Anesthesia Care, may impact the outcome of patients undergoing endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). The aim of this study was to identify the factors associated with good discharge outcome in patients receiving GA for AIS. Materials and Methods: Electronic medical records of patients above 18 years old who underwent endovascular treatment of AIS under GA at a Comprehensive Stroke Center from 2010 to 2014 were reviewed. Good outcome was defined as discharge modified Rankin Score 0 to 2 and poor outcome as modified...

Stroke prophylaxis in critically-ill patients with new-onset atrial fibrillation
AbstractDespite a high incidence of new onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) in critically ill patients and its association with short and long-term incidence of stroke, there is limited data assessing anticoagulation on hospital discharge in these patients. We retrospectively reviewed electronic medical records of all adult patients admitted to non-cardiac ICUs at our institution between January 2009 and March 2016. Patients with NOAF were identified and CHA2DS2-VASc score of ICU survivors was calculated. Prescription of oral anticoagulant therapy on hospital discharge was analyzed. A total of 640 (1.7% [38,708 patients]; 95%...

Intraoperative Neurophysiologic Monitoring of Surgical and Endovascular Treatment of Pediatric Arteriovenous Malformations (S55.002)
CONCLUSIONS:Persistent IONM changes had a strong correlation with new post-operative deficits. Transient IONM changes, including those resolving after alterations in surgical management or pre-embolization methohexital testing, had a much lower risk of new deficits. Therefore, IONM can be a useful tool in pediatric AVM cases, not only in predicting neurological compromise, but also in identifying when to alter management.Study Supported by:N/ADisclosure: Dr. Nguyen has nothing to disclose.

Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy and Stroke
The incidence and type of stroke in the setting of takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TC) can vary, depending on the patient population being studied [1–5]. For this reason, we sought to investigate the occurrence of TC together with stroke at our institution (Mayo Clinic, Scottsdale, Arizona). To do this, we identified all patients with a diagnosis of TC per ICD-9 (International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Edition) (ICD-9 code 429.83; October 1, 2006, to October 31, 2011) (Table 1) or apical ballooning syndrome (ICD-9 code 419.89; January 1, 2006, to September 30, 2006) in a retrospective analysis of the electronic medical records.

From efficacy in trials to effectiveness in clinical practice: The Swedish Stroke Prevention Study.
Authors: Brunström M, Dahlström J, Lindholm LH, Lönnberg G, Hallström S, Norberg M, Nyström L, Persson M, Weinehall L, Carlberg B Abstract Blood pressure treatment has shown great efficacy in reducing cardiovascular events in randomized controlled trials. If this is effective in reducing cardiovascular disease in the general population, is less studied. Between 2001 and 2009 we performed an intervention to improve blood pressure control in the county of Västerbotten, using Södermanland County as a control. The intervention was directed towards primary care physicians and included lectures on blood pressure t...

Comparison of Stroke Risk Stratification Scores for Atrial Fibrillation
Several stroke risk stratification scores have been developed to guide clinical decision making in patients with non valvular atrial fibrillation (AF). The aim of this study was to compare the performance of the CHADS2, CHA2DS2-VASc and R2CHADS2 risk scores to predict stroke.This retrospective cohort study was based on electronic medical records from Clalit Health Services (CHS), the largest payer provider healthcare organization in Israel. Data of CHS members with AF diagnosis between 2004- 2015 were extracted.

Referral Patterns of Central Retinal Artery Occlusion to an Academic Center Affiliated With a Stroke Center
Background: Central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) is a medical emergency, and patients who present acutely should be immediately referred to the nearest stroke center. We evaluated practice patterns for CRAO management at one academic center over the last decade. Methods: This was a retrospective study on all adult patients diagnosed with a CRAO seen at one tertiary hospital and outpatient clinic affiliated with a comprehensive stroke center (“our institution”) from 2010 to 2020. Our electronic medical records were searched for CRAO diagnoses, and patient medical records were reviewed. The exclusion criter...
