Warfarin Use and the Risk for Stroke and Bleeding in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation Undergoing Dialysis.
CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that warfarin use is not beneficial in reducing stroke risk but is associated with a higher bleeding risk in patients with AF undergoing dialysis. PMID: 24452752 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Evidence for the Prevention and Treatment of Stroke in Dialysis Patients
Abstract The risks of both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke are particularly high in dialysis patients of any age and outcomes are poor. It is therefore important to identify strategies that safely minimize stroke risk in this population. Observational studies have been unable to clarify the relative importance of traditional stroke risk factors such as blood pressure and cholesterol in those on dialysis, and are affected by biases that usually make them an inappropriate source of data on which to base therapeutic decisions. Well‐conducted randomized trials are not susceptible to such biases and can reliably investigate t...

The impact of comorbidity on survival after hemorrhagic stroke among dialysis patients: a nationwide population-based study
Conclusions: Dialysis patients who have history of prior stroke, diabetes and malignancy have worse survival than patients without these comorbidities. Attention must focus on providing optimal medical care after hemorrhagic stroke for these target groups to reduce mortality.

Abstract 102: Adding Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA) to the Acute Stroke Evaluation: A Single-center Experience Session Title: Poster Session I
Conclusions: Overall, CTA during acute stroke evaluations were safe and may offer clinical utility, without delaying evaluation or therapy delivery. Additional cost of acute CTA acquisition is negligible given it replaces MRA typically performed later, following admission, as standard vessel imaging. Further prospective study is required.

Warfarin use and incidence of stroke in Japanese hemodialysis patients with atrial fibrillation
Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) is one of the major risk factor for ischemic stroke, and oral anticoagulation is generally indicated for prevention of stroke. However, the utility of oral anticoagulation for AF in dialysis patients remains controversial. In this single-center, retrospective, observational study, data from 1120 patients on maintenance hemodialysis were analyzed. Baseline medical data were collected from dialysis records including age, gender, the cause of end-stage renal disease, dialysis vintage, and comorbidities. We evaluated outcomes including stroke, major hemorrhage, and death. A total of 1...

Risk of stroke and bleeding in patients with heart failure and chronic kidney disease: a nationwide cohort study
ConclusionsCompared with patients without CKD, among incident heart failure patients without atrial fibrillation, CKD both with and without dialysis was associated with a higher rate of major bleeding and all‐cause death. Only CKD‐no RRT was associated with a higher rate of ischaemic stroke and intracranial bleeding.

Functional outcomes of rehabilitation in patients with subacute stroke on haemodialysis.
CONCLUSION: Dialysis was not an inhibitory factor affecting outcomes during subacute rehabilitation in patients with stroke. Rehabilitation should be considered for patients with subacute stroke requiring haemodialysis, in order to provide every opportunity to achieve adequate functional outcomes.

Comparison of Clevidipine and Nicardipine for Acute Blood Pressure Reduction in Hemorrhagic Stroke
ConclusionsIn patients with hemorrhagic stroke, nicardipine appeared to have similar efficacy as clevidipine in SBP reduction, with a more likely reduction of rebound hypertension and drug cost. This retrospective study was underpowered, which may limit these implications. Further prospective studies are warranted to confirm these results.

Atrial Fibrillation and Warfarin Use in Haemodialysis Patients: An Individualized Holistic Approach is Important in Stroke Prevention
Abstract Incidence and prevalence of Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is higher in hemodialysis (HD) population than general population. AF is associated with higher morbidity and mortality than sinus rhythm in this population. The purpose of this review is to summarize all available evidence regarding use of warfarin in HD patients with AF for stroke prevention. The enormous heterogeneity of available studies does not allow pooling of the data in the form of meta‐analysis or systematic review. Current evidence regarding use of warfarin for AF in terms of risk benefit ratio in this population is limited and conflicting. Randomiz...

Outcomes of endovascular versus intravenous thrombolytic treatment for acute ischemic stroke in dialysis patients.
CONCLUSIONS: The odds of both in-hospital mortality and moderate to severe disability were lower with endovascular treatment in dialysis patients. Such data support the preferential use of endovascular treatment in this patient population. PMID: 25262635 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

The incidence and significance of acute kidney injury following emergent contrast administration in patients with STEMI and stroke
Abstract The authors have investigated the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) and short-term mortality following an activated STEMI and stroke alert at a tertiary referral and academic center. A single center, retrospective chart review of STEMI and stroke activation patients from January 2010 to March 2012. Data was collected and reviewed from an institutional database following IRB-approval. Inclusion criteria were STEMI patients taken for cardiac catheterization, excluding patients receiving hemodialysis due to end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Primary outcome measures were the incidence of AKI using the RIFL...
