Stroke, 2023
Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is frequently identified in young patients with ischemic stroke. Randomized controlled trials provide robust evidence supporting PFO closure in selected patients with cryptogenic ischemic stroke; however, several questions ...

Enhancing primary stroke prevention: a combination approach.
Lancet Public Health, 2022Stroke can be prevented through effective management of risk factors. However, current primary stroke prevention approaches are insufficient and often fragmented. Primary stroke prevention strategies are predominantly targeted at behavioural (eg, smoking

Stroke is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Risk factors for stroke have been determined through prospective epidemiologic study. Control of risk factors has been demonstrated to reduce stroke incidence, either through controlled trials or inferred from observational studies. In the past few years, new approaches to the treatment of established

Once the patient at high risk of stroke is identified, measures can be instituted to lower the risk. In hypertensive patients, the goal is control of blood pressure. In patients with occlusive arterial disease, either anticoagulation or surgery may be the treatment of choice.

Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinics of North America, 1999
This article reviews the causes of stroke and emphasizes the underlying vascular pathology. The risk factors associated with the pathologic processes are examined, with emphasis on the beneficial impact on stroke risk through the risk factor modification. Risk factor modification is a powerful tool in stroke prevention and can lead to a marked decrease

Publisher Summary Stroke is a major cause of death and devastating disability. For every 1000 of the population, three strokes each year, one of which is fatal, can be expected. Of those surviving stroke, about 70% have obvious neurological deficits after maximum recovery.

Preventable stroke and stroke prevention
Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2005Stroke is a major cause of death and disability in the world. The main causes of stroke are atherothromboembolism and cardiogenic embolism. The main causal and treatable risk factors for atherothromboembolic ischemic stroke are increasing blood pressure (BP), increasing cholesterol, cigarette smoking and diabetes; and the main risk factors for ...

Patients who have had a stroke are at high risk for recurrent stroke, myocardial infarction, and vascular death. Prevention of these events should be initiated promptly after stroke, because many recurrent events occur early, and should be tailored to the precise cause of stroke, which may require specific treatment.
