Blood pressure management in stroke patients
Hypertension is a major, yet manageable, risk factor for stroke, and the benefits of well-controlled blood pressure are well established. However, the strategy for managing blood pressure can differ based on the pathomechanism (subtype), stage, and treatment of stroke patients. In the present review...

| description | Hypertension is a major, yet manageable, risk factor for stroke, and the benefits of well-controlled blood pressure are well established. However, the strategy for managing blood pressure can differ based on the pathomechanism (subtype), stage, and treatment of stroke patients. In the present review, we focused on the management of blood pressure during the acute stage of intracerebral hemorrhage, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and cerebral infarction. In patients with cerebral infarction, the target blood pressure was discussed both before and after thrombolysis or other endovascular treatment, which may be an important issue. When and how to start antihypertensive medications during the acute ischemic stroke period were also discussed. In regards to the secondary prevention of ischemic stroke, the target blood pressure may differ based on the mechanism of ischemic stroke. We have reviewed previous studies and guidelines to summarize blood pressure management in various situations involving stroke patients. |
