Prise en charge de l’infarctus cérébral à la phase initiale

2022

Ischemic stroke accounts for 80% of overall stroke, and is one of the leading causes of death, disability and dementia in worldwide. Management of patients with acute ischemic stroke dramatically improved over time with the implementation of intensive care stroke units, the development of acute recanalization strategies, the optimization of the management of post-stroke complications, and the prevention of early stroke recurrence. The objective of this article is to provide a general overview of the current management of patients with acute ischemic stroke aiming at improving post-stroke outcome.

Temporal Trends in the Incidence of Ischemic Stroke in Young Adults: Dijon Stroke Registry

2021

<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Stroke is associated with major consequences in terms of socioeconomic impact and lost disability-adjusted life in young victims, thus justifying a careful surveillance of epidemiological trends. This study aimed to assess changes in the incidence of ischemic stroke in young adults over a long period. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> All cases of first-ever ischemic stroke that occurred among adults aged 18–55 years were prospectively recorded using the population-based Dijon Stroke Registry, from 1985 to 2017. Sex-specific annual incidence rates were calculated and were presented according to 6 time periods. Incidence rate r…

Incidence of Acute Ischemic Stroke With Visible Arterial Occlusion

2020

Background and Purpose: Because of several methodological limitations, previous studies focusing on the prevalence of large vessel occlusion in ischemic stroke (IS) patients provided conflicting results. We evaluated the incidence of IS with a visible arterial occlusion using a comprehensive population-based registry. Methods: Patients with acute IS were prospectively identified among residents of Dijon, France, using a population-based registry (2013–2017). All arterial imaging exams were reviewed to assess arterial occlusion. Annual incidence rates of IS (first-ever and recurrent events) and IS with a visible occlusion were calculated. Results: One thousand sixty cases of IS were recorde…

Dépistage séquentiel de la FA silencieuse post-AVC (Stepwise screening for silent Atrial Fibrillation After Stroke : SAFAS study)

2019

Introduction Un tiers des AVC cryptogeniques seraient secondaires a une fibrillation atriale (FA) silencieuse non-detectee par les methodes usuelles. Trois versants seraient impliques dans le developpement d’une arythmie (le substrat atrial, le modulateur, le declencheur). Objectifs L’objectif etait d’identifier les deregulations physiopathologiques conduisant au developpement de la FA. Patients et methodes Etaient inclus les patients hospitalises pour un AVC ischemique au sein de l’USINV du CHU de Dijon, d’etiologie indeterminee a la prise en charge. Le depistage de la FA combinait de maniere sequentielle la telemetrie, le Holter ECG prolonge et le Holter sous cutane. Les donnees cliniques…

Current characteristics and early functional outcome of older stroke patients: a population-based study (Dijon Stroke Registry)

2020

Abstract Background the ongoing growing and ageing population is associated with an increase in older patients suffering a stroke. We aimed to assess the current profile of these patients in a population-based setting. Methods all patients with acute stroke were prospectively identified among residents of Dijon, France, between 2013 and 2017, using a population-based registry. Characteristics and early outcome of patients were compared according to age groups. Results 1,288 stroke cases were recorded (median age: 81.1 years, interquartile range: 66.1–86.7, 54% women). Patients aged 75–85 years and those >85 years accounted for 27.6 and 33.9% of overall cases. Increasing age was assoc…

Impact of the Ageing Population on the Burden of Stroke: The Dijon Stroke Registry.

2018

<b><i>Background:</i></b> We aimed to evaluate the impact of the ageing population on temporal trends in burden of stroke and to provide projections for the coming years. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Stroke cases (ischemic strokes, spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhages, or undetermined strokes) were prospectively identified between 1987 and 2015 in Dijon, France, using a population-based registry. Age-standardized incidence rates of first-ever and recurrent stroke were calculated, and their temporal trends were assessed using age- and sex-adjusted annual incidence rate ratios (RR). <b><i>Results:</i></b> The population of Dij…

Influence of Pre-Existing Mild Cognitive Impairment and Dementia on Post-Stroke Mortality. The Dijon Stroke Registry

2020

<b><i>Objective:</i></b> We assessed the association between pre-stroke cognitive status and 90-day case-fatality. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Patients with ischemic stroke (IS) or spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) were prospectively identified among residents of Dijon, France, between 2013 and 2015, using a population-based registry. Association between pre-stroke cognitive status and case-fatality at 90 days was evaluated using Cox regression. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Seven hundred sixty-two patients were identified, and information about pre-stroke cognitive status was obtained for 716 (92.6%) of them, including 60…

Association Between Fatigue and Cognitive Impairment at 6 Months in Patients With Ischemic Stroke Treated With Acute Revascularization Therapy.

2019

Background: Fatigue is a frequent symptom after stroke. We aimed to determine the association between fatigue and cognitive performance in patients with ischemic stroke who received acute revascularization therapy (IV thrombolysis and/or mechanical thrombectomy).Methods: Seventy patients were prospectively included in the stroke unit of the University Hospital of Dijon, France. A follow-up was performed at 6 months with clinical examination, fatigue assessment by the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS), and a comprehensive neuropsychological evaluation. Patients with fatigue (FSS score >4) were compared with patients without fatigue. Neuropsychological factors associated with fatigue at 6 month…

Influence of Preexisting Cognitive Impairment on Clinical Severity of Ischemic Stroke: The Dijon Stroke Registry.

2020

Background and Purpose— The ongoing ageing population is associated with an increasing number of patients with stroke who have preexisting cognitive impairment. This study aimed to evaluate clinical severity in patients with ischemic stroke according to prestroke cognitive status. Methods— Patients with ischemic stroke were prospectively identified among residents of Dijon, France using a population-based registry (2013–2017). Prestroke cognitive status (no impairment, mild cognitive impairment [MCI], or dementia) was recorded, and severity at stroke onset was measured using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score. Association between prestroke cognitive status and sev…

Increasing Burden of Stroke: The Dijon Stroke Registry (1987–2012)

2017

<b><i>Background:</i></b> We aimed to provide a representation of the global burden of stroke. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> All cases of stroke were prospectively identified through the population-based registry of Dijon, France (1987–2012). Attack rates and mortality rates (defined as stroke leading to death within 30 days) were standardized to the European standard. Sex differences and temporal trends were evaluated by calculating rate ratios (RRs). <b><i>Results:</i></b> In all, 5,285 stroke cases (52.7% women) were recorded. The standardized attack rate was 98.2/100,000/year and the mortality rate was 12/100,000/year, and…
