First-Ever Ischemic Stroke In Covid-19: How Is It Different? - A Stroke Registry-Based Study From South India
Acta Neurol Taiwan. 2023 Dec 30;32(4):190-201.ABSTRACTStroke associated with COVID-19 has been characterised in several multicentre retrospective studies and meta-analyses. However, they did not distinguish first-ever ischemic strokes (F-AIS). Therefore, we aimed to study the incidence, clinical characteristics, and outcomes of a cohort of F-AIS associated with COVID-19 during the first wave of the pandemic and compare this cohort with those of F-AIS without COVID-19, COVID-19 without stroke. We also sought to compare the stroke admissions and mechanisms during the pandemic and immediate prepandemic periods.PMID:37723911

Clinical characteristics, outcomes and risk factors for mortality in hospitalized diabetes and chronic kidney disease patients after COVID-19 infection following widespread vaccination
ConclusionsThese findings highlight the critical importance of identifying and managing comorbid risk factors for COVID-19, especially among the elderly, in order to optimize clinical outcomes, even after COVID-19 vaccination.

Angiography-based hemodynamic features predict recurrent ischemic events after angioplasty and stenting of intracranial vertebrobasilar atherosclerotic stenosis
ConclusionsIn patients with intracranial vertebrobasilar atherosclerosis treated with PTAS, preprocedural prolonged TTP of the target vessel and shortened trans-stenotic TTP difference were associated with stroke relapse. Q-DSA-defined hemodynamic parameters provided incremental predictive value over conventional parameters for stroke recurrence.Clinical relevance statementQuantitative DSA analysis enables intuitive observation and semi-quantitative evaluation of peri-therapeutic cerebral blood flow. More importantly, quantitative DSA –defined hemodynamic parameters have the potential for risk stratification of patients ...

Association Between Cervical Fracture Patterns and Blunt Cerebrovascular Injury When Screened with Computed Tomographic Angiography
Vertebral artery injury (VAI) is estimated to be present in upwards of 0.7% of all patients who sustain blunt trauma [1 –7], and in 19-39% of all cervical spine fractures. This is likely due to the close anatomic relationship between the cervical spine and the vertebral arteries. There has been significant interest in determining the risk factors for development of VAI and carotid artery injuries (CAI) because of t he potentially catastrophic outcomes in a missed posterior circulation stroke. If undetected blunt cerebrovascular injuries (BCVI), which include both VAI and CAIs, have significant morbidity and mortality wit...

Adult mortality trends in Matlab, Bangladesh: an analysis of cause-specific risks
Conclusion Deaths from stroke, heart disease and cancers were either on the rise or remained unchanged, but other causes declined continuously from 2003 to 2017. Immediate strengthening of the preventive and curative healthcare systems for NCDs management is a burning need.

Progressing patient safety in the Emergency Medical Services
Introduction Patients are vulnerable during emergency episodes outside the formal care sector, for example, care provided by paramedics responding to a stroke or heart attack at home. Yet much less is known about the safety of Emergency Medical Services (EMS) as compared with primary or secondary healthcare.1 This relative lack of information is important given there are aspects of EMS care that create unique patient safety challenges. EMS staff are not surrounded by the usual safety infrastructure one finds in hospitals or community facilities. The episodic nature of each interaction means EMS staff lack the information o...

Pressure- vs. volume-controlled ventilation and their respective impact on dynamic parameters of fluid responsiveness: a cross-over animal study
Pulse pressure variation (PPV) and stroke volume variation (SVV), which are based on the forces caused by controlled mechanical ventilation, are commonly used to predict fluid responsiveness. When PPV and SVV ...

Blood pressure trajectory of inpatient stroke rehabilitation patients from the Determining Optimal Post-Stroke Exercise (DOSE) trial over the first 12 months post-stroke
ConclusionBlood pressure increased after inpatient rehabilitation over the first 12 months post-stroke, especially among those with a history of hypertension. The 4-week aerobic gait training intervention did not influence this trajectory.

Post-stroke functional assessments based on rehabilitation games and their correlation with clinical scales: A scoping review
AbstractConsidering that stroke is one of the main causes of adult impairment and the growing interest in Virtual Reality (VR) as a potential assessment and treatment tool for the rehabilitation of stroke patients, a scoping review was conducted to check whether user ’s motion data obtained from VR games and simulations can be clinically valid. This was done by reviewing studies on parameters for assessing the functional skills and rehabilitation progress using data from VR games or simulations. Then, identifying the most widely used and validated parameters f or the quantification of motor ability in a virtual environme...
