ABSTRACT
The first edition of the Korean clinical practice guidelines for primary stroke prevention reflects evidence published before June 2007. Since then, several clinical studies and meta-analyses have been conducted to determine the efficacy of aspirin for the primary prevention of cardiovascular disease including stroke. The aim of this guideline update is to provide timely recommendations taking into consideration the new evidence. Three clinical studies and four meta-analyses performed between July 2007 and November 2010 were identified and included for updating the guidelines. The main finding was a lack of aspirin efficacy for primary stroke prevention in patients with diabetes or peripheral arterial disease. We have summarized the new evidence and revised our recommendations for aspirin for primary stroke prevention. New evidence will need to be reflected continuously in future guideline updates.
