Overview

Randomized trial shows lower recurrent stroke risk in patients receiving post-stroke follow-up, indicating significant implications for treatment and monitoring.

Key Points

  • Assess the impact of post-stroke follow-up service on recurrent stroke rates and risk factor management.
  • Analyzed National Health Service data from discharged stroke patients (February 2023 - December 2024)
  • Calculated rates of recurrent strokes, risk factor control, and complications detection
  • Compared outcomes between observed (n=520) and non-observed patients (n=660)
  • Recurrent stroke risk is lower in observed patients at 8.2% versus 11.6% in non-observed, OR 1.465 (95% CI 0.98-2.16, p=0.0563)
  • Risk factors control improved significantly: LDL <1.8 reached in 51.8% on 3 months, BP <130/80mmHg in 58.8% on 30 days
  • Treatment adjustments increased early post-stroke, indicating a need for focused intervention in the first months.
