Successful use of therapeutic anticoagulation therapy in two patients with moderate stroke from the second day of onset: A case report and literature review
CONCLUSION: As a result of this case report, clinical improvement has not been associated with hemorrhagic sequelae of anticoagulant administration on the first day. At this point, we recommend conducting a trial to study the effect of early application of anticoagulants from the first day on clinical outcome, recurrence, and hemorrhagic transfusion of stroke.PMID:36268411 | PMC:PMC9577847 | DOI:10.1016/j.amsu.2022.104726

Dysphagia and associated factors among patients with acute ischemic stroke in Vietnam
CONCLUSION: Our study showed that the prevalence of dysphagia is high among patients with acute ischemic stroke in Vietnam. Intervention solutions should focus more on patient groups of higher age group, brainstem stroke, communication disorder and facial paralysis.PMID:36536715 | PMC:PMC9758358 | DOI:10.1016/j.amsu.2022.104887

24-hour ambulatory blood pressure and cryptogenic ischemic stroke in young adults
CONCLUSIONS: Non-dipping patterns of BP were associated with CIS in the absence of a PFO but not in the absence of hypertension. This may reflect differing pathophysiology underlying CIS in patients with versus without a PFO. Due to limitations of the study, results regarding absolute ABP levels should be interpreted with caution.Key MessagesNocturnal non-dipping patterns of blood pressure were associated with cryptogenic ischemic stroke except in participants with a patent foramen ovale and in those without hypertension by any definition, which may indicate differing pathophysiology underlying cryptogenic ischemic stroke ...

Stroke patterns and outcomes during the second wave of COVID-19 pandemic: a cross-sectional study
CONCLUSION: The factors that cause the delayed transfer to the hospital and onset of treatment should be addressed. Patient counseling about the likely prognosis can be done after evaluating the probable outcome based on the NIHSS score and median duration of hospital stay. Nevertheless, mechanisms should be developed to reduce the prehospital delay at the ground level as well as at the policy level.PMID:37363610 | PMC:PMC10289718 | DOI:10.1097/MS9.0000000000000722

Minimizing Time to Treatment: Targeted Strategies to Minimize Time to Thrombolysis for Acute Ischaemic Stroke
ConclusionTime to thrombolysis delays are multi‐factorial. Effective reduction of time delays for acute ischaemic stroke requires the correct identification of and targeted strategies to overcome time barriers.

Minimising time to treatment: targeted strategies to minimise time to thrombolysis for acute ischaemic stroke
Abstract Time to thrombolysis is a critical determinant of favourable outcomes in acute ischaemic stroke. It is not infrequent that patient outcomes are compromised due to out‐of‐hospital and in‐hospital time delays. On the other hand, time delays could be minimised through the identification of barriers and the implementation of targeted solutions. This review outlines the different strategies in minimising treatment delays and offers recommendations. Literature search in PubMed, Medline and EBSCO Host was conducted to identify studies that are relevant to reduction of time to treatment from January 1995 to December...

Off-hour presentation and outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
DISCUSSION: The evidence suggests that patients with acute ischemic stroke presenting during off-hours have higher short-term mortality and greater disability at discharge. PMID: 24721584 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Symptomatic carotid near‐occlusion with full collapse might cause a very high risk of stroke
ConclusionsPatients with symptomatic carotid near‐occlusion with full collapse might have a very high risk of stroke recurrence. Carotid endarterectomy could be considered for these patients.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Emergency Department Companions of Stroke Patients: Implications on Quality of Care
Abstract: Acute care of stroke victims largely relies on the rapid identification and timely clinical and radiological assessment. We evaluated the effect of the number of patient companions on the efficiency of the diagnostic process in the emergency department (ED). Consecutive stroke patients admitted to the ED between August 2011 and October 2012 were evaluated. Clinical, epidemiological, and timeline data (symptoms onset, ED arrival, computed tomography [CT] scanning, and recombinant tissue plasminogen activator infusion), as well as the number of accompanying persons in the ED were prospectively recorded. We used mul...
