This study used ambulatory blood pressure (BP) monitoring to generate BP and heart rate (HR) profiles soon after stroke onset evaluated the association between determined values 3-month outcomes.We analyzed 24-hour records from 104 patients with acute ischemic stroke. Ambulatory was attached at second eighth hospitalization days (Days 1 7). Both HR were characterized using baseline, mean, maximum, minimum coefficient of variation during recording periods. Outcomes 3 months assessed as independence according a modified Rankin Scale score ≤2 poor ≥5.Sixty-six (63%) achieved 12 (11%) had outcomes. Mean changed 150.5±19.5/85.7±11.3 mm Hg on Day 139.6±19.3/80.0±11.7 7. After multivariate adjustment, mean systolic (OR, 0.63; 95% CI, 0.45-0.85), diastolic (0.61; 0.37-0.98), pulse (0.55; 0.33-0.85), 0.37-0.98) recorded well 7 (0.47; 0.23-0.87) inversely associated (1.92; 1.15-3.68), (5.28; 1.92-22.85), (4.07; 1.83-11.88) (4.92; 1.36-36.99) positively outcome.All BP, pressure, outcomes months.
