Influence of recurrence on outcome of acute ischemic stroke / 中国综合临床

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the adverse effects of recurrence of acute ischemic stroke at discharge.Methods Continuously including 3 440 acute ischemic stroke patients from June 1,2009 to May 31, 2012 in Department of Neurology of the People's Hospital of Xinganmeng of Inner Mongoha Autonomous Region were esearch objects.Poor outcome was defined as the occurrence of disability or death at discharge.Disability was defined as the Modified Rankin ' s Scale (MRs), when MRs was 3 or more.Binary logistic regression was used to analysis the risk factors ,calculated the odds ratios(OR) and 95％ confidence interval (95％CI).Results A total of 359 (10.44％) patients occurred poor outcomes, of whom 136 (37.88％) patients occurred the recurrence of ischemic stroke.Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that age (OR=1.24,95％CI 1.09-1.41), body temperature (OR =1.92,95 ％ CI 1.43-2.57), hypertension (OR =1.73,95 ％ CI 1.33-2.24), high blood sugar (OR=1.67,95％CI 1.26-2.20) ,glycerin trilaurate(OR=0.41,95％CI0.27-0.62) ,smoking (OR =1.37,95％CI 1.01-1.85) and recmrrence(OR=1.49,95％CI 1.15-1.95) were independent risk factors of poor outcome at discharge.The recurrence of acute ischemic stroke can increase the risk of the occurrence of poor outcome at discharge up to 49％.Conclusion Recurrence is an independent risk factor for the poor outcome of acute ischemic stroke, we should focus on secondary prevention of stroke patients at the clinical work and health education to reduce the recurrence of ischemic stroke.
