Background Despite promising epidemiological data, it remains unclear if increased blood pressure variability is associated with death after acute ischemic stroke. Our objective was to examine this association in a large cohort of acute ischemic stroke patients. Methods We conducted a retrospective analysis of anonymized, pooled, participant data from the Virtual International Stroke Trial Archive. We included patients with a 90-day modified Rankin Scale and blood pressure readings in the 24 h after study enrollment. The exposure was blood pressure variability during the day after study enrollment, calculated for the systolic and diastolic blood pressure using six statistical methodologies. The primary outcome was death within 90 days of stroke onset. Results Our cohort comprised 1891 patients of whom 277 (14.7%) died within 90 days. All indices of blood pressure variability were higher in patients who died, but the difference was more pronounced for systolic than diastolic blood pressure variability (systolic standard deviation for alive versus dead patients = 13.4 versus 15.9 mmHg, p < 0.001). Similar results were found in logistic regression models fit to the outcome of death, but only systolic blood pressure variability remained significant in adjusted models (Odds Ratio for death when comparing highest to lowest tercile of systolic blood pressure variability = 1.41–1.89, p < 0.03 for all). Conclusions and relevance: These results reinforce prior studies that found increased blood pressure variability is associated with worse neurologic outcome after stroke. These data should help guide research on blood pressure variability after stroke and advocate for the inclusion of death as a clinical outcome in future studies that therapeutically reduce blood pressure variability.

Systolic Blood Pressure Variability

Introduction: There has been increasing evidence that higher systolic blood pressure variability (SBPV) is related to unfavorable outcomes in patients with stroke. We explored the relation between SBPV and clinical outcomes after reperfusion therapy; intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) and endovascular therapy (EVT). Methods: We retrieved data of consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) treated with reperfusion therapy from our prospective stroke registry between October 2005 and December 2018. We calculated the following five SBPV during 24 hours after IVT or EVT; mean, standard deviation (SD), coefficient of variation (CV), successive variation (SV), and average real variability (ARV). Clinical outcomes included unfavorable outcomes as modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score 3-6 at 3 months and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) as any hemorrhage with neurological deterioration of 4 points of more on the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS). Successful reperfusion was indicated with early neurological improvements of 4 points of more on the NIHSS after IVT alone or Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction scores of 2b or 3 after EVT alone or EVT combined with IVT. Results: Among 933 patients with premorbid mRS scores of 0-1 (72±12 years; 316 women), 426 patients with unfavorable outcomes and 35 patients with sICH were observed. In adjusted analyses, all measures of SBPV but CV were related to unfavorable outcomes, while all measures of SBPV but mean SBP were related to sICH. In 566 patients with successful reperfusion, 228 patients with unfavorable outcomes and 10 patients with sICH were observed. In adjusted analyses, all measures of SBPV but mean SBP were positively related to unfavorable outcomes, while no measures of SBPV were independently related to sICH (table). Conclusion: High SBPV after successful reperfusion therapy contributed to unfavorable outcomes, suggesting high SBPV after reperfusion therapy might need more attention.

Objective:To explore the association between blood pressure (BP) levels after endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) and the clinical outcomes of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO).Methods:A study was eligible if it enrolled AIS patients older than 18 years, with an LVO treated with either successful or unsuccessful EVT, and provided either individual or mean 24-hour systolic BP values after the end of the EVT procedure. Individual patient data from all studies were analyzed using a generalized linear mixed-effects model.Results:A total of 5874 patients (mean age: 69±14 years, 50% women, median NIHSS on admission: 16) from 7 published studies were included. Increasing mean systolic BP levels per 10 mm Hg during the first 24 hours after the end of the EVT were associated with a lower odds of functional improvement (unadjusted common OR=0.82, 95%CI:0.80-0.85; adjusted common OR=0.88, 95%CI:0.84-0.93) and modified Ranking Scale score≤2 (unadjusted OR=0.82, 95%CI:0.79-0.85; adjusted OR=0.87, 95%CI:0.82-0.93), and a higher odds of all-cause mortality (unadjusted OR=1.18, 95%CI:1.13-1.24; adjusted OR=1.15, 95%CI:1.06-1.23) at 3 months. Higher 24-hour mean systolic BP levels were also associated with an increased likelihood of early neurological deterioration (unadjusted OR=1.14, 95%CI:1.07-1.21; adjusted OR=1.14, 95%CI:1.03-1.24) and a higher odds of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (unadjusted OR=1.20, 95%CI:1.09-1.29; adjusted OR=1.20, 95%CI:1.03-1.38) after EVT.Conclusion:Increased mean systolic BP levels in the first 24 hours after EVT are independently associated with a higher odds of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage, early neurological deterioration, three-month mortality, and worse three-month functional outcomes.

Early Neurological Deterioration

Background Early neurological deterioration occurs in approximately 10% acute ischemic stroke patients after thrombolysis. Over half of the early neurological deterioration occurred without known causes and is called unexplained early neurological deterioration. Aims We aimed to explore the development of early neurological deterioration at 24 h after thrombolysis, and whether it could be predicted by the presence of baseline hypoperfusion in lenticulostriate arteries territory in acute ischemic stroke patients. Methods We retrospectively reviewed our prospectively collected database of acute ischemic stroke patients in the unilateral middle cerebral artery territory who had baseline perfusion image and received thrombolysis. Unexplained early neurological deterioration was defined as ≥ 2 points increase of National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) from baseline to 24 h, without known causes. Hypoperfusion lesions in different territories were identified on perfusion maps. Results A total of 306 patients were included in analysis. Patients with pure lenticulostriate arteries hypoperfusion (defined as the presence of hypoperfusion in lenticulostriate artery territory, but not in middle cerebral artery terminal branch territory) were more likely to have unexplained early neurological deterioration than others (27.6% vs. 6.1%; OR, 5.974; p = 0.001), after adjusting for age, baseline NIHSS and onset to treatment time. Conclusions Patients presenting hypoperfusion in pure lenticulostriate arteries territory were easier to experience unexplained early neurological deterioration.

Background: Variability in blood pressure is a predictor of stroke severity and causes of poor functional outcome. Blood pressure variability is one of the main predictor of the prognosis acute ischemic stroke. Blood pressure variability were independently and linearly associated with the development of early neurologic deterioration (END) in acute ischemic stroke Objective: To determine the association between blood pressure variability and END in acute ischemic stroke patients. Method: This study uses a cross sectional design. Sampling was conducted at H. Adam Malik General Hospital Medan. Samples were taken as many as 40 subjects consecutively. Blood pressure checks were perform every hour for 72 hours then an assessment of the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score at admission and the third day of treatment. Data analysis used fisher’s exact test. Results: The demographic characteristics of the study subjects were an average age of 56-<71 years, high school education level, housewife occupation and Batak ethnicity. The mean of maximum systolic blood pressure (SBP) was 151±12.16 mmHg, minimum SBP 123.15±18 mmHg, delta SBP 25.35±10.66 mmHg, maximum diastolic blood pressure (DBP) 79.7±6.01 mmHg, minimum DBP 61.77±7.32 mmHg and delta DBP 17.97±8.48 mmHg. The NIHSS day 1 score had an average of 9.55±6.73, the NIHSS day 3 score was 11.25±7.93. Most subjects experienced END. There is a significant relationship between blood pressure variability and END with a p of 0.03 (p<0.05). Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between blood pressure variability and END in patients with acute ischemic stroke.
