- Abstract
- Background: Patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) are at high risk of subsequent vascular events. The aim of this study was to estimate rates of recurrent stroke, myocardial infarction (MI), and major vascular events during the first year after AIS in Korea. Methods: Through a multicenter stroke registry in Korea, 12,227 consecutive cases of AIS were identified between November 2010 and May 2013 and were followed up for recurrent stroke, MI, and major vascular events up to 1 year after stroke. Results: Cumulative 30-day, 90-day and 1-year rates were 2.7%, 3.9%, and 5.7% for recurrent stroke; .1%, .3%, and .5% for MI; and 8.1%, 10.6%, and 13.7% for major vascular events, indicating that the early period is at high risk of recurrent stroke and major vascular events. The risk of recurrent stroke was substantially higher than the risk of MI: 13.0 times at 90 days and 11.4 times at 1 year. Compared to those with small-vessel occlusion (SVO), those with ischemic stroke subtypes other than SVO had a higher risk of recurrent stroke as well as major vascular events. Other common independent predictors for recurrent stroke and major vascular events were diabetes and prior stroke history. Conclusions: During the first year after AIS, one in 18 had recurrent stroke and one in 7 major vascular events. More than two thirds of recurrent stroke and three quarters of major vascular events developed within 90 days in a Korean cohort of stroke patients. Better prevention strategies are required for high-risk patients during this high-risk period.
