Summary

Perioperative stroke, both ischemic and hemorrhagic, can result from various factors. Understanding these mechanisms, including hypotension, hypercoagulability, arrhythmias, antithrombotics, and hypertension, is crucial for prevention.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Cardiology
  • Vascular Surgery

Background:

  • Perioperative stroke is a serious complication impacting patient outcomes.
  • Identifying the underlying causes of perioperative stroke is essential for effective management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To elucidate the distinct mechanisms contributing to perioperative ischemic stroke.
  • To delineate the specific factors involved in perioperative hemorrhagic stroke.

Main Methods:

  • This review synthesizes current literature on perioperative stroke.
  • Analysis focuses on documented etiological factors for both stroke types.

Main Results:

  • Ischemic stroke mechanisms include hypotension, hypercoagulability, and embolic events from arrhythmias.

  • Hemorrhagic stroke mechanisms involve antithrombotic use, hypertension, and direct vascular injury.
  • Conclusions:

    • Perioperative ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes arise from different, yet sometimes overlapping, pathophysiological pathways.
    • Awareness of these mechanisms aids in risk stratification and preventative strategies.
