Perioperative stroke, defined as a stroke occurring within 30 days post-surgery, typically emerges within the first week. The incidence of perioperative stroke among adults undergoing non-cardiac and non-neurological surgeries ranges from 0.1% to 1% after a surgical intervention. Mortality rates following perioperative stroke surge, reaching up to eight times higher than controls, with approximately one in four cases resulting in death. Fortunately, various strategies are available to potentially prevent perioperative strokes. However, the vast amount of data poses challenges for physicians in memorization and recall for clinical use. This study aims to summarize essential perioperative stroke prevention strategies and determine an effective mnemonic for their memorization and recall.
The initial search in PubMed focused solely on review articles published within the last 10 years. It utilized the keywords "perioperative stroke" and "prevention."
An initial search found 39 articles, with two suitable for review. Using data from selected review articles, further searches were conducted on Google Scholar and PubMed for articles from 2000 to 2024, identifying 30 additional suitable references. From these 32 articles, the author developed a mnemonic, "DAANISH," to aid in remembering strategies for preventing perioperative stroke.
Implementing this mnemonic may help reduce the risk of perioperative stroke and improve patient outcomes. Future research is needed to confirm its effectiveness.
围手术期卒中定义为手术后30天内发生的卒中,通常在第一周内出现。接受非心脏和非神经外科手术的成年人围手术期卒中发生率在手术干预后为0.1%至1%。围手术期卒中后的死亡率飙升,比对照组高出多达八倍,约四分之一的病例导致死亡。幸运的是,有多种策略可用于潜在地预防围手术期卒中。然而,大量的数据给医生在记忆和临床应用中回忆这些信息带来了挑战。本研究旨在总结围手术期卒中预防的基本策略,并确定一种有效的记忆法来帮助记忆和回忆这些策略。
在PubMed上的初步搜索仅聚焦于过去10年内发表的综述文章。使用了关键词“围手术期卒中”和“预防”。
初步搜索找到39篇文章,其中两篇适合综述。利用所选综述文章的数据,在谷歌学术和PubMed上对2000年至2024年的文章进行了进一步搜索,又确定了30篇合适的参考文献。作者从这32篇文章中开发了一个记忆法“DAANISH”,以帮助记住预防围手术期卒中的策略。
实施这个记忆法可能有助于降低围手术期卒中的风险并改善患者预后。需要未来的研究来证实其有效性。
