PLoS ONE 13(4):Įditor: Stephan Meckel, Universitatsklinikum Freiburg, GERMANY Hypertension was associated with increased risk of serious hemorrhage.Ĭitation: Ögren J, Irewall A-L, Söderström L, Mooe T (2018) Serious hemorrhages after ischemic stroke or TIA – Incidence, mortality, and predictors. A serious hemorrhage did not affect mortality in patients with impaired functional status, but it increased the risk of death in patients with mRS scores of 0–2. Patients with modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores of 3–5 exhibited 58.9% mortality during follow-up and those with mRS scores of 0–2 exhibited 18.4% mortality. The incidence rates of serious (n = 113) and intracranial hemorrhages (n = 45) after discharge from IS and TIA were 2.48% and 0.96% per year at risk, respectively. ![]() Non-parametric estimation under the assumption of competing risk was performed to assess the cumulative incidence and predictors of serious hemorrhages. The impact on mortality (stratified by functional level) was determined with Kaplan-Meier analysis. ![]() Serious hemorrhages were identified until 31 st December 2015. All patients admitted to Östersund Hospital for an IS or TIA in 2010–2013 were included (n = 1528, mean age: 75.1 years).
