On 11 March 2020, World Health Organization (WHO) declared the COVID-19 infection a pandemic. The risk of ischemic stroke may be higher in patients with similar to those other respiratory tract infections. We present comprehensive set practice implications single document for clinicians caring adult acute confirmed or suspected infection.The were prepared after review data reach consensus among experts from 18 countries. writers used systematic literature reviews, reference previously...
Background and Purpose— Early arterial recanalization can lead to dramatic recovery (DR) during intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) therapy. However, it remains unclear whether this clinical is sustained 3 months after stroke. Methods— We studied consecutive patients treated with tPA (0.9 mg/kg within hours) who had M1 or proximal M2 middle cerebral artery occlusion on pretreatment transcranial Doppler according previously validated criteria. Patients were continuously monitored...
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has a young but ageing population, leading to concerns for planning future growth in the number strokes provide necessary care. An understanding expected evolution stroke incidence is therefore plan infrastructure changes. Our aim was predict first occurring over 10-year period.An epidemiological model developed, using local mortality and population data changes population. Gender- age-specific rates were then applied projections estimate period. Stroke from range...
ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE The results of prematurely terminated stenting and aggressive medical management for preventing recurrent stroke in intracranial stenosis (SAMMPRIS) due to excessively high rate death patients randomized stent placement is expected affect the practice endovascular therapy atherosclerotic disease. purpose this report review components designs methods SAMMPRIS trial describe influence those on interpretation results. METHODS A critical patient population included conducted...
Objective: This study aims to evaluate the perception of medical teachers toward integration simulation-based education (SBME) in undergraduate curriculum and also identify contextual barriers faced by teachers.Methods: cross-sectional observational included from three universities. A questionnaire was used report teachers' perception.Results: SBME perceived (basic sciences/clinical, respectively) as enjoyable (71.1%/75.4%), effective assessment tool students' learning (60%/73.9%) can...
Background Stroke is a significant burden in Saudi Arabia and the Ministry of Health's stroke committee has identified an urgent need to improve care. Aim The purpose this study was undertake health-economic analysis quantify impact developing care country. Methods An economic model developed assess costs clinical outcomes associated with ischemic development program compared current Based on epidemiological data, cohorts patients enter each year for first 10 years based increasing...
Abstract Background Ischaemic stroke care requires a co-ordinated multi-disciplinary approach to optimise patient outcomes. Current provision in Saudi Arabia is below international recommendations, and with increasing numbers, variable access new therapies, sub-optimal co-ordination of staff, the Kingdom’s Ministry Health has prioritised strategies develop care. Our objective was use local epidemiological data predict incidence combine this staffing recommendations estimate future staff...
Stroke mortality is an important national health statistic and represents a frequent endpoint for epidemiologic studies. Several methods have been used to determine cause of death after stroke, but their agreement reliability are unknown. Two hundred consecutive deaths transient ischemic attack or stroke patients were identified (January 2000-September 2001) from ongoing population-based surveillance study in Texas, The Brain Attack Surveillance Corpus Christi Project. neurologists...
This paper presents a patient-derived model for the simulation of hemodynamics arteriovenous malformations brain (BAVM). new approach is step toward outcome embolization BAVM during treatment planning. More specifically, two aspects planning are pursued: change blood flow in vasculature after blocking malformation and transport embolic liquid. The method we propose tested on 3 cases varying complexity. Twenty out 24 main paths have been identified well by simulation.
This case report aims to investigate the potential link between topical application of Oral Contraceptive Pills (OCPs) and development Cerebral Venous Thrombosis (CVT) in a male patient, broadening our understanding CVT risk factors.
Our report sheds light on the risk of topical hormonal use in relation to cerebral venous sinus thrombosis. We diagnosed our patient with thrombosis (CVT) using computed tomography venogram, then detailed history and examination were obtained, thorough blood tests imaging done exclude other causes CVT like thrombophilias, infections, malignancies.Our is a 37-year-old heterosexual male, presented headache only. The venogram showed extensive right internal jugular vein, sigmoid, transverse,...
Background: Hypothyroidism can cause hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, cardiac dysfunction, and both hypo-and hypercoagulability; all of which are risk factors for stroke.Objectives: To explore the association between thyroid disease occlusion large vessels as well functional outcome in patients with ischemic stroke. Material Methods:A retrospective study was conducted among acute stroke patients, secondary to vessel occlusion, admitted King Fahad Medical City (KFMC), Riyadh, Kingdom Saudi...
Abstract Introduction: Stroke is an emergency condition that can lead to long-term disability or death if not recognized early and managed appropriately. Emergency medical service (EMS) providers play a significant role in recognizing, stabilizing, transporting patients with suspected stroke the nearest appropriate facility. Recently, new pathway was implemented Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, which are transported immediately King Fahad Medical City (KFMC), team notified prior patient's arrival....
