Use of Warfarin at Discharge Among Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients With Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation in China Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— The rate of warfarin use remains low among patients with ischemic stroke and known nonvalvular atrial fibrillation in China. Hospital size and academic status together with patient age, heart failure, heavy alcohol drinking, international normalized ratio in hospital, and stroke severity on admission were each independently associated with the use of warfarin at discharge. There is much room for improvement for secondary stroke prevention in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation patients in China.

Missed Ischemic Stroke Diagnosis in the Emergency Department by Emergency Medicine and Neurology Services Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Atypical symptoms associated with posterior circulation strokes lead to misdiagnoses. This was true at both an academic center and a large community hospital. Future studies need to focus on the evaluation of identification systems and tools in the emergency department to improve the accuracy of stroke diagnosis.

Validity of Hospital Discharge Diagnosis Codes for Stroke: The Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— A new AHA/ASA discharge code grouping to identify stroke had similar PPV and lower sensitivity compared with an alternative code grouping. Accuracy varied by patient characteristics and study sites.

Measurement properties of the upright motor control test in adults with subacute stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: The UMCT-KE and UMCT-KF are reliable and valid tests for rapidly estimating voluntary movement control of the lower limbs in adults with subacute stroke. PMID: 30325722 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Timing of Decompressive Hemicraniectomy for Stroke Clinical Sciences
Conclusions—In this nationwide analysis, early decompressive craniectomy was associated with superior outcomes. However, performing decompression before herniation may be the most important temporal consideration.

Academic Year-end Changeover and Stroke Outcomes
Lower quality of care and poorer outcomes are suspected when new trainees (eg, residents) start in July in teaching hospitals, the so-called “the July effect.” We evaluated outcomes and processes of care among patients with an acute ischemic stroke (AIS) admitted in July versus other 11 months of the year.

World Stroke Organization Global Stroke Services Guidelines and Action Plan
Every two seconds, someone across the globe suffers a symptomatic stroke. ‘Silent’ cerebrovascular disease insidiously contributes to worldwide disability by causing cognitive impairment in the elderly. The risk of cerebrovascular disease is disproportionately higher in low to middle income countries where there may be barriers to stroke care. The last two decades have seen a major transformation in the stroke field with the emergence of evidence‐based approaches to stroke prevention, acute stroke management, and stroke recovery. The current challenge lies in implementing these interventions, particularly in regions ...

Abstract 8: Get With The Guidelines-Stroke Program Participation and Clinical Outcomes for Medicare Beneficiaries Concurrent I Session B: Oral Abstract Presentations on Stroke Topics
Conclusions: Hospitals joining the GWTG-Stroke quality improvement program between 2004-2008 achieved significantly greater improvement in stroke patient outcomes than matched hospitals not joining the program, with lower all-cause mortality at 30 days and 1 year and higher rates of discharge directly to home.

Disparities in Stroke Type and Vascular Risk Factors Between 2 Hispanic Populations in Miami and Mexico City
Conclusions: We found significant differences in the frequency of hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and atrial fibrillation in Miami Hispanics and Mexican stroke patients, highlighting the heterogeneity of the Hispanic ethnic group. Future studies are needed to clarify the relative contribution of genetic and environmental disparities amongst Mexican and Caribbean Hispanic stroke patients.

Aspiration Pneumonia in Adults Hospitalized With Stroke at a Large Academic Hospital in Zambia
Discussion PSAP is common and life threatening in Zambia, especially among older participants with severe stroke presentations. PSAP was associated with significantly increased mortality independent of initial stroke severity, suggesting that interventions to mitigate PSAP may improve stroke outcomes in Zambia and other resource-limited settings.

Hospital Variation in Functional Recovery After Stroke Original Articles
Conclusions— One third of acute ischemic stroke patients were functionally dependent or dead 3 months postacute stroke; functional recovery rates varied considerably among hospitals, supporting the need to better determine which care processes can maximize functional outcomes.

Association Between Anthropometric Measurements and Stroke in Patients with Low CHADS2 Score (P1.226)
Conclusion: In contrast to the available literature, we found that patients with low risk CHADS2 score with subsequent acute stroke were taller with statistical significance than those with high CHADS2 score. The implication of this finding is that such variations in anthropometric measurements might predispose patients with atrial fibrillation to higher risk of stroke regardless of their CHADS2 score. Accordingly, stroke risk stratification models should include these measurements in contemporary practice.Disclosure: Dr. Hassan has nothing to disclose. Dr. Villines has nothing to disclose.
