2018 UCSF Acute Stroke Protocol Major Conclusions • Embolectomy with stent retrievers improve clinical outcome if done with 24 hours of symptom onset for anterior circulation ischemia • Earlier treatment improves outcome if onset < 6 hours • Thrombectomy is safe and effective from 6-24 hours provided they have favorable perfusion • You should be performing CTA in all patients seen within 24 hours of ischemic stroke onset University of California, San Francisco 6

ATACH 2 • N=1000 – Worldwide – 56.2% of participants were Asian – More than half had GCS=15 – Median hematoma volume ~10 cc • Intervention – intravenous nicardipine infusion for 24 hours to meet systolic blood pressure target • Outcome – unable to walk or worse – 38.7% in SBP < 140 mmHg group • Difference in Blood Pressure – 37.1% in SBP < 180 mmHg group • No difference in outcome • Trend towards more adverse events at 3 months in < 140 mmHg group (esp renal [posthoc]) Qureshi NEJM 2016 Qureshi NEJM 2016 2015 AHA ICH Guidelines New Definition of Hypertension • American Heart Association recently dramatically revised its definition of high blood pressure and guidelines for management. – Whelton JACC 2017 Page 2
What About ICH? BP in ICH – Practical Considerations • High blood pressure is – The most common cause of ICH – Is present in most patients with acute ICH regardless of cause of ICH – Is the most important target for primary and secondary prevention of ICH • Acute BP treatment – May not be as beneficial as we hoped – Has not been compared against “no treatment” • “Update” to 2015 AHA/ASA ICH Guidelines as a result of ATACH2 – May be more complex than we hoped • So what is the target now? » Variability may be bad (Manning Lancet Neurol 2014) At UCSF and ZSFG we have changed to SBP < 160 mmHg » One size may not fit all – Precision Medicine needed • Example in periop care: Futier JAMA 2017 Whelton JACC 2017 BP in ICH – Practical Considerations What to Do? • Acute BP Management in ICH – Lower the BP – Select an intermediate target. » SBP < 160 mmHg for at least 3 days? • Long-term BP Management in ICH – Select a target. < 130/80 mmHg in most cases – Discharge patient on BP meds and write the target in the chart – Recognize high BP in the office and start treatment (time to dispense with notion of “white coat” hypertension) Page 3
2/16/2018 Will We Ever Truly Have Closure? The “Absolute Mess” PFO Following Stroke of PFO in Stroke • Around 20-25% of all patients have a PFO • PFO alone is not necessarily associated with higher risk of recurrent stroke – Higher risk: Larger PFO, associated atrial septal aneurysm, perhaps younger age • Three previous negative trials of closure S. Andrew Josephson MD devices but cardiologists pre-2017 were still Carmen Castro Franceschi and Gladyne K.

2/16/2018 Rules of the Road Risks to Discuss With Your Patients • Atrial Fibrillation rates higher • Consider PFO closure if: • No great data beyond 5-10 years – The patient is younger than 60 years old • Antiplatelet regimens variable but most – AND you can be sure the PFO is the most include duals for some time and then likely etiology after a thorough workup monotherapy – AND the qualifying event is a stroke (not TIA) – And what if AF develops? that appears embolic (not lacunar) • Major risk for stroke is up front rather than – Likely concentrate on large PFOs or those with an atrial septal defect spread throughout subsequent years • Cardiologists new task: start counting bubbles • Medical management: Options appear equal 3
