Perioperative stroke: risk assessment, prevention and treatment / 国际脑血管病杂志

ABSTRACT

Perioperative stroke refers to acute ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke that occurs before operation,during operation and within 30 days after operation.Although the levels of anesthesia and surgical treatment have improved in recent years,there is no significant decrease in the incidence of perioperative stroke.The traditional vascular risk factors,such as advanced age,hypertension,and diabetes,are also the risk factors for stroke onset.In addition,perioperative stroke is closely associated with the operation site,operation mode,anesthesia,and other perioperative events.The treatment and prevention of perioperative stroke is attracting more and more attention,including surgery,anesthesia,neurology and other clinicians.This article reviews the risk assessment,prevention,and treatment of perioperative stroke.
