E-246 Professional board certification for nurses, advanced practice providers, and radiology techs working in neurointerventional labs: the certified neurointerventional clinician™ (CNIC)
ConclusionsAttainment of CNIC™ certification demonstrates expertise in neurointerventional lab competencies that include clinical and neuroimaging diagnosis of stroke, evidence-based management principles for both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke subtypes, and capabilities to safely support peri-procedural management in the neurointerventional lab.Disclosures A.

The incidence of medium vessel occlusions: a population-based study
ConclusionAs the only stroke center in Olmsted County, we have been able to estimate the incidence of ischemic stroke due to MeVO. While the incidence of MeVOs is less than both large and small vessel occlusions, they still represent a significant proportion of strokes with significant morbidity and mortality that would benefit from further studies in both acute intervention and prevention.

Correlation Between Intracranial Calcification and Extracranial Stenosis of the Internal Carotid Artery
We examined a population not selected for cerebral disease. This retrospective study contained 179 subjects aged 18 years and older from the Hawaii Diagnostic Radiology database. Extracranial internal carotid artery stenosis was determined using the absolute diameter, North American Symptomatic Carotid Endarterectomy Trial, and common carotid artery methods. Calcification was scored using the modified Woodcock method. A positive correlation between intracranial calcification and extracranial carotid stenosis was found using all three methods. Individuals with intracranial calcification were more likely to be older, have a ...

Characteristics and Outcomes of Children with Cerebral Sinus Venous Thrombosis
ConclusionsCSVT, which has a U-shaped age distribution, is an uncommon condition in children. Stroke is common in children with CSVT, and it is associated with an increased need for mechanical ventilation and increased mortality. The need for mechanical ventilation is more common in infants, and it is associated with increased mortality across all age groups.

Body mass index and waist circumference as predictors of recurrent vascular events after a recent ischemic stroke
Obesity is an independent contributor to ischemic stroke incidence. A meta-analysis of 13 studies revealed that a 5 kg/m2 increase in body mass index (BMI) was associated with a 22% increased risk of ischemic stroke in European/North American/Australian cohorts and a 35% increased risk of ischemic stroke among the Asian populations.1 In a meta-analysis of 7 prospective studies, persons in the highest waist circumference (WC) category had a relative risk of 1.41 (95% CI, 1.21 ⁠–1.56) for ischemic stroke compared with persons in the lowest category.

In-hospital stroke and mortality trends after left ventricular assist device implantation in the United States from 2017 to 2019
CONCLUSIONS: Our study found a significant downtrend in the in-hospital mortality rates among patients with LVAD without substantial changes in stroke rate trends over the study timeframe. As stroke rates remained steady, we hypothesize that improved management along with better control of blood pressure, could have played an important role in survival benefit over the study time frame.PMID:37387231 | DOI:10.1177/03913988231183723
