Transient Ischemic Attack
Improved Stroke Survival Outcomes With Antihypertensive Prescription at Discharge
It is possible that many patients who were not prescribed antihypertensive medications at discharge had contraindications to these agents, limiting the findings.
Predicting Major Bleeding in Patients With Stroke on Antiplatelet Agents
There are a limited number of prediction models that identify patients at risk of major bleeding after stroke or TIA.
