    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

  3. 2. Aspects on stroke outcome : survival, functional status, depression and sex differences in Riks-Stroke, the National Quality Register for Stroke Care

    Författare :Marie Eriksson; Birgitta Stegmayr; Bo Norrving; Andreas Terént; Bent Indredavik; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; stroke; stroke outcome; registry; sex differences; case fatality; functional recovery; depression; Medicine; Medicin;

    Sammanfattning : Stroke is a major cause of death and disability worldwide. In Sweden, about 30 000 strokes occur each year. The aim of this thesis was to analyse survival, functional outcome and self-reported depression after stroke, and to explore possible differences between men and women in stroke care and outcome.

  4. 3. Stroke Epidemiology and Outcome in Southern Sweden

    Författare :Joseph Aked; Klinisk strokeforskning; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; stroke; Epidemiology; Stroke incidence; Stroke Outcome; Ischemic Stroke; intracerebral haemorrhage; Population-based cohort study; Functional outcome;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Stroke is a common cause of mortality and disability worldwide and continuously updated, thorough information of itsoccurrence and outcome is needed. In recent years, multiple advances have been made in stroke prevention and treatment that mayhave changed the epidemiology and outcome of stroke. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke

    Författare :Alexandros Rentzos; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; stroke; endovascular treatment; embolectomy; thrombectomy; general anesthesia; conscious sedation;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Intravenous thrombolysis is effective in patients with minor stroke but not in patients with moderate or major stroke due to large vessel occlusion. Endovascular stroke treatment offers a high recanalization rate, which is associated with favorable neurological outcome. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Warfarin treatment quality in stroke prevention

    Författare :Fredrik Björck; Anders Själander; Peter Svensson; Per Wester; Christine Kremer; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Anticoagulation; atrial fibrillation; complications; international normalized ratio INR variability; persistence; stroke; time in therapeutic range TTR ; treatment quality; warfarin; cardiovascular disease; hjärt- och kärlforskning;

    Sammanfattning : BackgroundIschemic stroke is a serious condition often associated to presence of atrial fibrillation (AF). Use of anticoagulants for AF patients greatly reduces the risk of stroke. Warfarin is the most commonly used anticoagulant in Sweden. The aim of this thesis was to study the impact of warfarin treatment quality in Swedish stroke prevention. LÄS MER
