Predictors of Finding Occult Atrial Fibrillation After Cryptogenic Stroke Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Mobile cardiac outpatient telemetry detects AF in a substantial proportion of cryptogenic stroke patients. Age >60 years and radiographic evidence of prior cortical or cerebellar infarction are robust indicators of occult AF. Patients with neither had a low prevalence of AF.

Safety and Effect of Metoclopramide to Prevent Pneumonia in Patients With Stroke Fed via Nasogastric Tubes Trial Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— This study suggests that metoclopramide may reduce the rate of pneumonia and may improve other clinical outcomes in patients with subacute stroke fed via nasogastric tube. These findings need to be confirmed in larger randomized and blinded trials. Clinical Trial Registration— URL: https://www.clinicaltrialsregister.eu. EudraCT no: 2006-002570-22, URL: http://www.controlled-trials.com/ISRCTN18034911/18034911.

Time From Imaging to Endovascular Reperfusion Predicts Outcome in Acute Stroke Clinical Sciences
Conclusions—Compared with target mismatch patients, those with the malignant profile experience faster infarct growth and a steeper decline in the odds of functional independence, with longer delays between baseline imaging and reperfusion. However, this does not exclude the possibility of treatment benefit in patients with a malignant profile.

Prospective Study Of Acute Ischemic Stroke Sub-Types In A Teritiary Care Hospital In South India (P4.283)
Conclusion: The study contributes to understanding of demographic characteristics, risk factors and stroke-subtype in acute ischemic stroke. Like other studies LVA is the commonest subtype and intra-cranial vessels are commonly involved as in other Asian studies.Disclosure: Dr. Garuda has nothing to disclose.

Remote poststroke headache in children: Characteristics and association with stroke recurrence
Conclusions Remote poststroke headache is a common morbidity among pediatric stroke survivors, particularly in older children. Headaches may increase health care utilization, including neuroimaging and hospital admissions. We identified a possible association between poststroke headache and stroke recurrence.

Vascular Territories of Ischemic Stroke in Associated Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy (P1.221)
Conclusions: TC is a reversible cardiomyopathy that has an association with ischemic stroke. This condition can notably be both the cause and effect of stroke. Ischemic stroke of the left middle cerebral artery appears to be the most prevalent. In female patients suffering from middle cerebral artery distribution ischemic stroke and cardiac dysfunction, TC should be considered.Disclosure: Dr. Zia has nothing to disclose.

Characterizing Ischemic Stroke and Hemorrhagic Conversion in Infectious Endocarditis (P6.297)
Conclusions:The incidence of acute ischemic stroke in our population was 70.6%, with a third being silent infarcts. Hemorrhagic conversion occurred in 30% and was associated with cerebral microhemorrhages.Disclosure: Dr. Marquardt has nothing to disclose. Dr. Cho has nothing to disclose.

Prehospital thrombolysis in acute stroke: Results of the PHANTOM-S pilot study
Conclusions: The data suggest that prehospital stroke care in STEMO is feasible. No safety concerns have been raised so far. This new approach using prehospital tPA may be effective in reducing call-to-needle times, but this is currently being scrutinized in a prospective controlled study.

High values of baseline and 24-hour Mean Arterial Pressure are associated with lower chance of early neurological improvement in acute stroke patients treated with thrombolysis (P4.286)
Conclusions:High baseline and 24-hr MAP values are associated with lower chance of achieving ENI after IV thrombolysis. Further studies are needed to better understand whether acute BP dysregulation can influence different clinical courses in the early phase of IV thrombolysis.Disclosure: Dr. Lorenzano has nothing to disclose.

Pooled Assessment of Computed Tomography Interpretation by Vascular Neurologists in the STRokE DOC Telestroke Network
Conclusions: Both vascular neurologists and reports from spoke radiologists had excellent reliability in identifying radiologic rt-PA contraindications. These pooled findings demonstrate that telestroke evaluation of head CT scans for acute rt-PA assessments is reliable.

A Blood-based Biomarker Panel to Detect Acute Stroke
Background: The aim of this study was to develop an adjunctive, peripheral biomarker test to differentiate ischemic strokes, intracranial hemorrhages (ICHs), and stroke mimics in the acute setting.Methods: Serum samples were collected from 167 patients who presented with an acute neurologic deficit within 24 hours of symptom onset. Patients were adjudicated to ischemic stroke, ICH, and mimic pathology groups based on clinical and radiographic findings. Samples were tested for levels of 262 potential markers. A multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression model of 5 biomarkers was built by stepwise selection and valida...

Mobile Cardiac Outpatient Telemetry Identifies Occult Atrial Fibrillation After Cryptogenic Stroke (I2-2.002)
CONCLUSIONS:Atrial fibrillation is detected on MCOT in a substantial minority of cryptogenic stroke patients. Age蠅60 and the presence of prior cortical or cerebellar strokes should raise suspicion for occult AF. These data may aid in the selection of patients for prolonged arrhythmia monitoring.Disclosure: Dr. Ingala has nothing to disclose. Dr. Jara has nothing to disclose.

Correlation between cerebral blood volume values and outcomes in endovascular therapy for acute ischemic stroke
Conclusions We found that cortical CBV loss is predictive of poor clinical outcomes, whereas basal ganglia CBV loss is predictive of hemorrhagic transformation but without translation into poor clinical outcomes. Our study findings support published results of baseline preintervention CBV as a predictor of outcomes in patients undergoing intra-arterial stroke therapies.
