Original description
Ischemic stroke accounts for a relatively high proportion of strokes. In recent years, intravenous thrombolysis and endovascular therapy have significantly improved the revascularization rate in patients with large vessel occlusive cerebral infarction, but 20-50% of patients still experience ineffective revascularization. Therefore, postoperative monitoring and treatment of patients with large vessel occlusions is crucial for early recognition, management and prevention of complications. Stress ulcer bleeding is a serious complication after acute ischemic stroke, with a prevalence of 1%-5%, and a previously proven incidence of stress ulcer bleeding after ischemic stroke. Stress ulcer bleeding after ischemic stroke has been shown to be closely associated with unfavorable outcomes, such as mortality. Current national and international guidelines or consensus on the prevention of stress ulcers after acute ischemic stroke do not advocate the routine use of histamine receptor antagonists or proton pump inhibitors for the prevention of stress ulcers, but rather should be considered in the context of the patient's risk factors for stress ulcers and discontinued after the patient initiates enteral nutrition. However, there is no evidence-based medical evidence to support the risk-benefit relationship of stress ulcer drug prophylaxis in patients with mechanical thrombectomy for acute anterior circulation large vessel occlusion.Read full original descriptionShow less
