Abstract WP214: NIBP Measured Blood Pressure Fails to Agree with Blood Pressure Taken by Other Methods in Acute ICH Patients

Stroke Journal

Since NIBP only measures MAP, future work should focus on setting MAP parameters in ICH patients.

Abstract WP8: Targeted versus High-Intensity Monitoring Following Intravenous Thrombolysis in Acute Ischemic Stroke

Stroke Journal

Introduction:Current guidelines recommend 24-hours of high-intensity monitoring (HIM) for acute ischemic stroke patients post-intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) due to risk of bleeding complications including symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH). The mean length of ICU-stay for the HIM group was 32.8

Abstract WP6: Associations between computed tomography biomarkers of cerebral small vessel disease and early outcomes after intravenous thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke

Stroke Journal

Background and Purpose:Whether imaging markers of cerebral small vessel disease on computed tomography (CT-CSVD) relates to early clinical outcomes after intravenous thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke remains not well understood. Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page AWP6-AWP6, February 1, 2025. 1.02; score 2: OR 0.46, 95%CI 0.26-0.83;

Case Report: Complete atrioventricular block in an elderly patient with acute pulmonary embolism

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

She presented with presyncope and an initial blood pressure of 77/63 mmHg. Catheter-directed thrombolysis and a temporary pacemaker insertion were carried out sequentially. Echocardiography confirmed signs of right ventricular dysfunction.

Abstract WMP78: Mobile Stroke Units Enable Hyperacute Interventions for Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Stroke Journal

Recent landmark trials BEST-MSU and B_PROUD have proven that MSUs facilitate quicker thrombolysis times and improved functional outcomes at 90 days when compared to conventional emergency medical services (EMS) for acute ischemic stroke patients. Goal blood pressure was defined as systolic blood pressure <160.

Abstract TMP63: Blood Pressure (BP) Protocol Violations in IV Tenecteplase Treated Ischemic Stroke Patients is Associated With Early Neurologic Deterioration and Symptomatic Intracranial Hemorrhage

Stroke Journal

Further exploration of moderate BP parameters deserve further study post thrombolysis, like the BEST II study in post thrombectomy patients. sICH had a similar but weaker association: excessive SBP (7.7% vs 4.9%; p=0.3) and excessive DBP (3.8% vs 1.4%; p=0.2).Conclusion:Our

Abstract WMP5: Comparative analysis of methods to derive number needed to treat over the entire range of global disability on the modified Rankin Scale

Stroke Journal

We derived benefit per hundred treated (BPH, same as absolute risk reduction) and NNT using four Permutation Methods (CMH test with tied pairs ignored, divided in half, assigned by NIHSS outcome, and by better than model expectations) and three Joint Outcome Table Methods (Multi-sampling, Min-Max, and Expert Panel).Results:The
