Therapeutics and Clinical Risk Management, 2014 The short-term risk of an ischemic stroke after a transient ischemic attack (TIA) is estimated to be approximately 3%-10% at 2 days, 5% at 7 days, and 9%-17% at 90 days, depending on active or passive ascertainment of ischemic stroke. Various risk prediction scores are available to identify high-risk patients.
