Primary stroke prevention is crucial due to high global death and disability rates. This study offers evidence-based recommendations focusing on modifiable risk factors, medications, surgical options, and identifying high-risk individuals.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Public Health
  • Preventive Medicine

Background:

  • Stroke remains a major global cause of mortality and long-term disability.
  • Current therapeutic strategies for stroke treatment are insufficient.
  • Emphasis on effective stroke prevention is therefore critical.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide evidence-based recommendations for primary stroke prevention.
  • To discuss interventions targeting modifiable risk factors.
  • To explore the utility of pharmacological and surgical approaches.

Main Methods:

  • Review of evidence for primary stroke prevention strategies.
  • Analysis of modifiable risk factors for stroke.
  • Evaluation of drug and surgical interventions.

  • Discussion of novel risk-identification markers.

    • Main Results:

    • Key modifiable risk factors for stroke are identified.
    • The roles of specific drugs and surgical procedures in prevention are outlined.
    • Emerging biomarkers show potential for identifying at-risk populations.

    Conclusions:

    • Primary stroke prevention requires a multifaceted approach.
    • Addressing modifiable risk factors is paramount.
    • Further research into new markers can enhance early detection and intervention.
