NEW YORK (Reuters Health) Jul 08 –
Taking 160 mg to 325 mg of aspirin within two days of ischemic stroke offers a “small but statistically significant” reduction in stroke death and disability.
That’s according to a joint statement from the American Stroke Association, a division of the American Heart Association, and the American Academy of Neurology.
To define the roles of antiplatelets and anticoagulants in acute ischemic stroke, the Joint Stroke Guideline Development Committee searched the literature for large, well-designed, randomized, prospective studies on the topic.
They found 310 worthy of full review, but only 10 met all inclusion criteria and formed the basis of the group’s recommendations.
