WHO DEFINITION OF STROKE
A NEUROLOGICAL DEFICIT OF
• Sudden onset
• With focal rather than global dysfunction
• In which, after adequate investigations, symptoms are presumed to be of
non-traumatic vascular origin, and
• lasts for >24 hours
Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA)
An acute focal neurological deficit resulting from cerebrovascular
disease
• With resolution of signs and symptoms within 24 hours
• No evidence of ischemia / infarction on imaging studies
(Harrison 21th)
Stroke Risk Factors: Non modifiable
1. AGE
2. Gender - male
3. Race – Blacks > Asians or Hispanics> Whites
4. Family History.
5. Coagulation Disorders
6. Cardiac Disease
Stroke Risk Factors: Modifiable
1. Hypertension
2. Diabetes mellitus
3. Hypercholesterolemia
4. Elevated LDL or Low
HDL
5. Elevated homocystein
6. Smoking
7. Alcohol Abuse
8. Oral Contraceptive
9. Pregnancy
10. Obesity
11. Sleep apnea
12. Carotid stenosis
Common Types andIncidence:
• Infarction: Incidence 80% - mortality 20%
• 50% - Thrombotic – atherosclerosis
• Large-vessel 30% (carotid, middle cerebral)
• Small vessel 20% (lacunar stroke)
• 30% Embolic (heart dis / atherosclerosis)
• Young, rapid, extensive.
• Hemorrhage: Incidence 20% - mortality 80%
• Berry aneurysm, Microaneurysm, Atheroma
• Intracerebral or subarachnoid.

EMERGENCY EVALUATION OF ACUTE ISCHEMIC STROKE
 Assess ABCs, vital signs
 Provide oxygen by nasal cannula wherever necessary
 Obtain IV access; obtain blood samples(CBC, ’lytes,
coagulation studies)
 Obtain 12-lead ECG, check rhythm, place on monitor
 Check blood sugar; treat if indicated
[NCCT]

MEDICAL MANAGEMENT
 Supportive treatment
 I.V. thrombolysis- alteplase ,
tenecteplase
 Anti thrombotic tretment
 Neuroprotection
 Stroke centers and Rehabilitation
CLOPI 300->75+
ASPIRIN 75
Endovascular options
 Endovascular intervention
a. I.A. thrombolysis
b. Angioplasty and stenting
c. Mechanical clot disruption
d. Clot extraction (Mechanical
thrombectomy)
• Carotid end artrectomy
INTRAVENOUS THROMBOLYSIS IN AIS
Stroke Treatment Protocol.pptx
Perform neurological examination
Every 15 min during the infusion thereafter for the next 6 hrs then hourly until 24 hour
aftr treatment
If pt develop severe headache, acute HTN, nausea , vomiting, discontinue the process and
obtain an emergency CT scan
INTRA ARTERIALTHROMBOLYSIS
Major stroke >6hrs due to occlusion of MCA
CEREBRAL angiography
Mechanical thrombectomy
CRITERIA FOR MECHANICAL THROMBECTOMY
1. mRS (modified Rankin score) of 0-1
2. Large vessel Occlusion (LVO): Internal carotid artery or MCA segment 1
3. Age >18yr
4. NIHSS score > 6
5. ASPECT (Alberta Stroke Program Early CT) Score of >6
6. Treatment can be initiated (groin puncture) within 6 hours of symptom onset

Hemorrhagic stroke
Types
1. Intracerebral Hemorrhage(15%)
• Caused by bleeding within the brain tissue itself
2. Sub Arachnoid Hemorrhage(5%)
• Caused by extravasation of blood into the subarachnoid space
Intracerebral Hemorrhage
1. An acute and spontaneous extravasation of blood in to the brain
parenchyma that may extend into ventricles and subarachnoid space.
2. 10-15% of all cases of stroke.
3. Classification:
• Primary ICH: Hemorrhage originate from spontaneous rupture of small
arteries or arterioles damaged by chronic HTN or amyloid angiopathy.
• Secondary ICH: Haemorrhage results from trauma, rupture of Aneurysm,
vascular malformation, coagulopathy, haemorrhagic transformation of
cerebral infarct, intracranial neoplasm, venous angioma, dural sinus thrombosis
Clinical features- ICH
1. Onset of a sudden focal neurological deficit while the patient is
active, which progresses over minutes to hours, as Weakness or
paresis, Facial droop , blindness, Dysarthria ;Seizure
2. Headache is more common in ICH
3. Vomiting
4. Increased systolic BP and impaired level of consciousness
Diagnosis- ICH
Prognosis- ICH
Management- ICH
1. Blood Pressure- <140 [sbp]
IV medications
• Labetalol
• Nicardipine
• Esmolol
• Enalapril
• Hydralazine
• Nitroglycerine
2. Intracranial Pressure:
• Place ICP monitor or EVD drain in patients with GCS < 8.
• GOAL: Maintain ICP < 20mmHg
• Minimal Cerebral Perfusion Pressure > 60mmHg
3. Haemostatic therapy: Eptacog alpha (Recombinant fac VII)
4. Anticonvulsant therapy:
• Lorazepam, Phenytoin, Fosphenytoin, valproic acid, phenobarbital
5. Fever control
6. Management of Hypergylcemia:
• Insulin if Blood sugar > 185mg/dl
7. Nutrition
8. DVT prophylaxis
Surgical Management- ICH
1. Aims:
• Decompression to reduce or prevent elevated ICP
• Removal of acute haematoma to reduce mass effect
• Minimise toxicity from blood breakdown products to surrounding brain
2. Options:
• Ventriculostomy
• Stereotactic aspiration of haematoma
• Endoscopic haematoma evacuation
• Craniotomy
• Hemicraniectomy
SUBARACHNOID HAEMORRHAGE
• Neurological emergency characterised by haemorrhage
into the subarachnoid space.
• One of the most important cause of sudden, acute severe
headache.
• 85 % of non traumatic cases are due to ruptured
cerebral aneurysm
• Incidence: F > M (3:2)
• Risk higher in blacks than in whites
• Incidence increases with age and peaks at 50
Causes of SAH
1. Trauma: Most common cause
2. Vascular:
• Ruptured intracranial aneurysm, AVM, Tumors with
hemorrhage
3. Vasculopathy
• Collagen vascular disease, Amyloid angiopathy, Arterial
dissection
4. Haematological
• Anticoagulant,leukemia, Hepatic or renal induced
coagulopathy
5. Drugs : Cocaine, Amphetamine
Clinical Presentation of SAH
1. Prodormal events:
• Symptoms:Headache, dizziness, orbital pain, diplopia, visual
loss
• Signs: Sensory or motor disturbance, seizure, ptosis,
dysphasia
2. Focal neurological findings
3. CLASSIC presentation:
• Sudden onset severe headache(Thunderclap headache)
• Nausea/vomiting
Complications of hemorrhage
 Hydrocephalus
 Rebleeding
 Vasospasm
 Seizure
 Cardiac dysfunction
Management of SAH
Medical management of SAH focuses on
• Protecting the airway
• Managing the BP
• Preventing rebleeding prior to treatment
• Managing vasospasm(Calcium channel antagonist Nimodipine)
• Treating Hydrocephalus(EVD or permanent ventricular shunting)
• Preventing Pulmonary embolus
• Bed rest in quiet room and stool softner,if needed, to prevent
straining.
• If headache or neck pain is severe, Mild sedation and analgesia.
• Adequate Hydration
Managing raised ICP
 For stupurous patient, Emergency Ventriculostomy to measure ICP
.
 Medical therapies: Mild hyperventilation, Mannitol and sedation
 Maintain adequate cerebral perfusion pressure(60-70mmHg) while
avoiding excessive elevation/fall of arterial pressure
Surgical mx of SAH
1. Clipping of the aneurysm
2. Coiling of the aneurysm
