  1. 1. Secondary prevention after acute coronary syndrome : antiplatelet therapy and risk factor control

    Författare :Robin Henriksson; Thomas Mooe; Fredrik Björklund; Stefan James; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Acute coronary syndrome; secondary prevention; myocardial infarction; ischemic stroke; antiplatelet therapy; risk factors; randomized controlled trial; cardiovascular disease; hjärt- och kärlforskning; kardiologi; Cardiology;

    Sammanfattning : Background: One of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide is cardiovascular disease (CVD), including acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Despite improvements in medical treatment, management, and care over the years and the halving of mortality in recent decades, there is considerable room for improvement. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Cardiac surgery and antiplatelet therapy

    Författare :Carl Johan Malm; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cardiac surgery; Platelets;

    Sammanfattning : Background Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and a P2Y12 inhibitor improves outcome in acute coronary syndrome (ACS). In the subset of ACS patients undergoing urgent cardiac surgery, ongoing or recently discontinued DAPT is associated with increased risk of bleeding. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Cerebral complications in infective endocarditis

    Författare :Ulrika Snygg-Martin; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :infective endocarditis IE ; cerebral embolism; cerebrovascular complications; antiplatelet therapy; anticoagulation; warfarin; vegetation; Staphylococcus aureus; mortality;

    Sammanfattning : Infective endocarditis (IE) is a life-threatening disease. Cerebral embolization complicates the course in 10-40% of IE episodes. Aims of study were to investigate the frequency of cerebrovascular complications (CVC) in left-sided IE and the influence of protective and risk factors with focus on antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapy.

  5. 4. Recurrent stroke : risk factors, predictors and prognosis

    Författare :Johanna Pennlert; Marie Eriksson; Per-Gunnar Wiklund; Bo Carlberg; Hélène Pessah-Rasmussen; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; stroke; risk factors; atrial fibrillation; anticoagulant; antiplatelet; intracerebral hemorrhage; stroke recurrence; socioeconomic status; medicin; Medicine;

    Sammanfattning : Background Many risk factors for stroke are well characterized and might, at least to some extent, be similar for first-ever stroke and for recurrent stroke events. However, previous studies have shown heterogeneous results on predictors and rates of stroke recurrence. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Management of hemorrhagic complications associated with antithrombotic therapy

    Författare :Ammar Majeed; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Anticoagulants are used for the prevention and treatment of arterial and venous thromboembolism. Such therapy is always associated with an increased risk of bleeding. Intracranial hemorrhage is the most serious form of anticoagulantsrelated bleeding and caries a high mortality rate. LÄS MER
