Background And Purpose

Method

A total of 326 patients were eligible for a VFI evaluation within 1 week of stroke onset. One-year follow-up data were obtained after VB stroke and other vascular events. All predictors were determined using Cox regression models.

Conclusion

VFI is an independent predictor of recurrent VB stroke and TIA.

Main results

The overall incidence of recurrent VB stroke and transient ischemic attack (TIA) was 29% (n = 92). After multivariate adjustment, severe and moderate VFI were predictors of recurrent VB stroke and TIA.
