Penn AM, Croteau NS, Votova K, et al. - Given that elevated blood pressure (BP) at emergency department (ED) presentation and advancing age were correlated with ischemic stroke risk, researchers conducted this multi-site, prospective, observational study to explore the link between BP, age, and transient ischemic attack/minor stroke (TIA/MS). Between December 2013 and April 2016, 1,084 ED patients screened for suspected TIA/MS (symptom onset < 24 h, NIHSS < 4). Seven hundred sixty-eight patients were diagnosed with TIA/MS over a 28-month period. Upon initial presentation, increased systolic blood pressure in patients younger than 80 with suspected TIA/MS can be a useful clinical indicator to help increase the suspicion of TIA/MS among clinicians.
