Treatment
- Treatment is recommended when the risk of the aneurysm rupturing outweighs the risks of treatment.[hus.fi]
- Treatment is personalized for each patient by choosing from the most advanced medical, endovascular and surgical treatments, as well as ongoing clinical trials.[neurosurgery.ucsf.edu]
- Steve Roach, Kerstin Bettermann, and José Biller have completely revised and updated sixth edition of the highly respected standard for stroke diagnosis and treatment, adding chapters on genetics, pregnancy-related stroke, and acute treatment.[books.google.com]
- Neurologists work with doctors trained in brain and nervous system surgery ( neurosurgeons ) and others to provide inpatient and outpatient treatment for people who have strokes and other cerebrovascular diseases.[mayoclinic.org]
Prognosis
- Prognosis Although stroke is a disease of the brain, it can affect the entire body. A common disability that results from stroke is complete paralysis on one side of the body, called hemiplegia.[ninds.nih.gov]
- If ES worsens prognosis, the prophylactic use of anticonvulsants in patients at risk is warranted.[doi.org]
- Abstract The etiology of ischemic stroke affects prognosis, outcome, and management. Trials of therapies for patients with acute stroke should include measurements of responses as influenced by subtype of ischemic stroke.[doi.org]
Etiology
- The TOAST classification denotes five subtypes of ischemic stroke: 1) large-artery atherosclerosis, 2) cardioembolism, 3) small-vessel occlusion, 4) stroke of other determined etiology, and 5) stroke of undetermined etiology.[dx.doi.org]
- Covered topics include differential diagnosis, etiological determination, radiologic investigations, and management of patients within the National Service Framework.[curlie.org]
- Imaging, laboratory, and clinical data studies do not suggest nonischemic etiology: possible alternative etiologies ARE ruled out. 1. Sudden onset of pure motor hemiplegia that persists with normal CT at 12 hours after onset.[doi.org]
