Overview
The secondary prevention strategies for recurrent transient ischemic stroke and ischemic stroke may include the lifestyle modification and treatment of modifiable risk factors.[1][2][3]
Secondary prevention
The secondary prevention strategies for recurrent transient ischemic stroke and ischemic stroke may include the following:[1][2][3]
Life style modification for secondary prevention
Life style modification measures which may help reduce the risk of recurrent stroke and prevent complications may include:
- Increased physical activity->10 min of exercise such as walking, running, bicycling or swimming >3 times/wk
- Eating healthy balanced diet. Mediterranean diets are recommended for stroke risk reduction.
- Smoking cessation
- Decreased alcohol intake
- Controlling diseases that are risk factors, including diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and hypertension.
Treatment of modifiable risk factors
Blood pressure
- BP control to less than 140/90mmHg or 130/90mm Hg with an angiotensin inhibitor alone or in combination with a diuretic or angiotensin receptor blocker[3]
Diabetes mellitus
- Diabetes control with fasting blood glucose level <126mg/dl.[3]
Hyperlipidemia
Antithrombotic stroke
- Long term antiplatelet therapy with aspirin, dipyrimadole plus aspirin, clopidogrel or aspirin alone[1][3][4][5]
- Anticoagulation not required
Cardioembolic stroke
- Anticoagualtion for atrial fibrillation with Vit K antagonist or NOACs.
- If intolerant to anticoagulation, aspirin 325 mg or clopidogrel 75 mg (if aspirin intolerant)[3]
TIA with ongoing non Q wave MI or unstable angina
- Use of aspirin(75 mg-100mg) in combination with clopidogrel (75 mg) may be beneficial.[3]
Other situations
- Patients having history of TIA undergoing endartectomy may benefit from aspirin (25 to 325mg) before surgery.[3]
Secondary prevention for specific causes of transient ischemic stroke[6]
