CO142 Evaluating the Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Acute Ischemic Stroke Outcomes in the Stroke Belt
This study sought to compare specific key outcomes related to ischemic stroke that occurred before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. We assessed mortality rates, morbidity rates, and the administration of thrombolytics in patients with ischemic stroke admitted to emergency departments (ED) in the Stroke Belt, a region of the United States with historically worse stroke outcomes.

CO97 Risk Factors, Presentation and Outcome in Acute Ischemic Stroke According to Social Position Indicators in Patients Hospitalized in a Referral Center in Bogot á 2011-2019
As stroke treatment is time-dependent, it challenges the social and demographic context of patients for timely consultation and effective access to reperfusion therapies. The aim of this study was to relate indicators of social position to cardiovascular risk factors, time of arrival, access to reperfusion therapy and mortality in the setting of acute ischemic stroke.

CO8 Design and Rationale of a Global Prospective Observational Study of Real-World Management of Patients with Atrial Fibrillation at High Risk of Stroke- Gardenia
Anticoagulants reduce the risk of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). However, due to various causes, including concerns for bleeding, there is treatment variability, including undertreatment or non-treatment, especially in patients with high bleeding risk. The aim of the GARDENIA registry is threefold, 1) to understand the real-world usage of oral anticoagulants (OAC) in patients with AF and elevated risk of bleeding, 2) to evaluate the factors associated with treatment or non-treatment with OACs and adherence to guideline recommended doses of OACs and 3) to determine the incidence of clinical outcomes in th...

CO2 Evaluation of Clinical Decision Support to Improve Care for Patients with Atrial Fibrillation at Increased Stroke Risk: 2-Year Results
Effective stroke prevention with oral anticoagulation is the cornerstone of management in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). However, previous literature has shown that guideline-concordant anticoagulation in patients with high stroke risk is often below 70% in the U.S. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of clinical decision support (CDS) tools on anticoagulation rates.

CO1 Psychosocial Disorders and Clinical Outcomes Among Older Adults with Atrial Fibrillation: The Sage-AF Study
To examine the association between anxiety, depression, or both, and clinical outcomes, including mortality, stroke, major bleeding, and hospitalizations, among older adults with atrial fibrillation (AF).

P35 Economic Benefit of Stroke Technology-Assisted Rehabilitation (STAR): A Scoping Review
High-intensity rehabilitation is an evidence-based effective treatment for reducing disability and improving the quality of life in stroke survivors with sensorimotor impairments. Increasing healthcare costs, rising demand for rehabilitative treatment, and a shortage of healthcare professionals have motivated the development of new technologies to support high-intensity stroke rehabilitation more effectively. However, relatively little data is available regarding the economic benefits of these new approaches, including virtual reality, exoskeletons, robots, and wearable sensors.

The costs associated with stroke care continuum: a systematic review
AbstractStroke, a leading cause of death and long-term disability, has a considerable social and economic impact. It is imperative to investigate stroke-related costs. The main goal was to conduct a systematic literature review on the described costs associated with stroke carecontinuum to better understand the evolution of the economic burden and logistic challenges. This research used a systematic review method. We performed a search in PubMed/MEDLINE, ClinicalTrial.gov, Cochrane Reviews, and Google Scholar confined to publications from January 2012 to December 2021. Prices were adjusted using consumer price indices of t...

What is the utility of blood beta-hydroxybutyrate measurements in emergency department in patients without diabetes: a systematic review
ConclusionThe evidence for any utility of BHB measurement in the ED in absence of diabetes is limited to the paediatric population, specifically children presenting with symptoms of gastroenteritis. Any role in adults remains unexplored.

Predictors of in-hospital mortality among patients with symptoms of stroke, Mashhad, Iran: an application of auto-logistic regression model
ConclusionOur results showed considerable geographical variations in the odds of in-hospital stroke mortality in Mashhad neighborhoods. Also, the age- and sex-adjusted results highlighted the direct association between such variables as accessibility rate of an ambulance, screening time, and LOS in hospital with in-hospital stroke mortality. Thus, the prognosis of in-hospital stroke mortality could be improved by reducing delay time and increasing the EMS access rate.
