Gastrointestinal Hemorrhage after Acute Ischemic Stroke and Its Risk Factors in Asians
European Neurology, 07/21/09
Hsu H–L et al. – This study of Asians revealed a higher frequency of GI hemorrhage after acute ischemic stroke than that reported in previous studies, and the frequency of GI hemorrhage was positively correlated with the number of risk factors present. The authors suggest that identifying stroke patients with a high risk of hemorrhage may allow clinicians to set up ulcer prophylactic protocols for the patients most likely to benefit, especially in an Asian population.
