Discussion
ISCHEMIC STROKE
1. Definition
Stroke is applied to a sudden focal neurologic syndrome, specifically the
type due to cerebrovascular disease. The term cerebrovascular disease designates
any abnormality of the brain resulting from a pathologic process of the blood
vessels. Pathologic process is given an inclusive meaning namely, occlusion of
the lumen by embolus or thrombus, rupture of a vessel, an altered permeability of
the vessel wall, or increased viscosity or other change in the quality of the blood
flowing through the cerebral vessels. The vascular pathologic process may be
considered not only in its grosser aspects embolism, thrombosis, dissection, or
rupture of a vessel but also in terms of the more basic or primary disorder, i.e.,
atherosclerosis, hypertensive arteriosclerotic change, arteritis, aneurysmal
dilation, and developmental malformation. Equal importance attaches to the
secondary parenchymal changes in the brain resulting from the vascular lesion.
These are of two main types ischemia, with or without infarction, and hemorrhage
and unless one or the other occurs, the vascular lesion usually remains silent. The
only exceptions to this statement are the local pressure effects of an aneurysm,
vascular headache (migraine, hypertension, temporal arteritis), multiple small
vessel disease with progressive encephalopathy (as in malignant hypertension or
cerebral arteritis), and increased intracranial pressure (as occurs in hypertensive
encephalopathy and venous sinus thrombosis). Also, persistent acute hypotension
may cause ischemic necrosis in regions of brain between the vascular territories of
cortical vessels, even without vascular occlusion.1
More than any other organ, the brain depends from moment to moment on
an adequate supply of oxygenated blood. Constancy of the cerebral circulation is
12
13
time for collateral channels to open. The level of blood pressure may influence the
result; hypotension at a critical moment may render anastomotic channels
ineffective. Hypoxia and hypercapnia are presumed to have deleterious effects.
Altered viscosity and osmolality of the blood and hyperglycemia are potentially
important factors but difficult to evaluate. Finally, anomalies of vascular
arrangement (of neck vessels, circle of Willis, and surface arteries) and the
existence of previous vascular occlusions must influence the outcome.1
The specific neurologic deficit obviously relates to the location and size of
the infarct or focus of ischemia. The territory of any artery, large or small, deep or
superficial, may be involved. When an infarct lies in the territory of a carotid
artery, as would be expected, unilateral signs predominate: hemiplegia,
hemianesthesia, hemianopia, aphasia, and agnosias are the usual consequences. In
the territory of the basilar artery, the signs of infarction are frequently bilateral and
occur in conjunction with cranial nerve palsies and other segmental brainstem and
cerebellar signs; quadriparesis, hemiparesis, and/or unilateral or bilateral sensory
impairment are typical, coupled with diplopia, dysarthria, and vertigo in various
combinations.1
2. Risk factor
According to the American Heart Association (AHA), the risk factors of
stroke are divided into two, that are not modifiable risks factors and modifiable
risk factors. Not modifable risk factors include: age, sex, low birth weight, race or
ethnicity, and genetic factors. Modifiable risk factors include: hypertension,
smoking, diabetes, nutritional imbalance, lack of physical activity, alcohol
consumption, and drug abuse. Incidence of stroke can occur with one or more risk
factors (multifactor).1-3

Management
Stroke patients should be handled by a multidisciplinary team.
Management stroke be done by improving the general state of the patient, treat the
risk factors, and prevent complications.3-6
4.1 Hyperacute stadium
Action at this stadium is done at the Emergency Room, the aim is to
prevent the widespread of brain tissue damaging. At this stage, patients were
given oxygen 2 L / min and crystalloid/colloid fluid, avoid administration of
dextrose. Brain CT scan examination, electrocardiography, chest X-ray, complete
peripheral blood and platelet count, prothrombin time / INR, APTT, blood
glucose, blood chemistry (including electrolytes), and if hypoxia, do the blood gas
analysis. Other actions in the Emergency Room are providing mental support to
patients and provide an explanation to the family to remain calm.3-6
4.2 Acute stadium
4.2.1 General treatment
Place the patients head in 30o positions, head an chest in a field, change
the sleep position every 2 hours. Mobilization began gradually when
15
hemodynamically stable. Furthermore, free the airway, give oxygen 1-2 liters /
min. If necessary, intubation. Fever overcome with compresses and antipyretic,
then look for the cause, when the bladder is full, emptied (preferably with
intermittent catheters).3-6
Fluid nutrition with 1500-2000 isotonic cristalloid or colloid and
electrolyte as needed, avoid fluids containing glucose or isotonic saline. Nutrition
orally only if swallowing function well, if there is swallowing disorders or
decreased consciousness, nasogastric tube is recommended. 3-6
Blood glucose levels > 150 mg% should be corrected with continuous
intravenous drip insulin during 2-3 days. Hipoglikemia (blood glucose < 60 mg%
or < 80mg% with symptoms) should be corrected immediatelywith dextrose 40%
iv until return to normal and the cause must be sought. 3-6
Headache, nausea, and vomiting treated according to the symptoms. Blood
preassure doesnt need taken down immediately, except when the systolic pressure
220 mmHg and diastolic pressure 120 mmHg, Mean Arterial Blood Pressure
(MAP) 130 mmHg (the two measurements with an interval of 30 minutes), or
obtained acute myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure as well as kidney
failure. Maximal blood pressure reduction was 20%, and the recommended drugs
are sodium nitroprusside, alpha-beta receptor blockers, ACE blockers, or
antagonists calsium. 3-6
If hypotension occurs, the systolic pressure 90 mmHg, diastolic 70 mm
Hg, the patient should be given 250 mL of 0.9% NaCl for 1 hour, followed by 500
mL for 4 hours and 500 mL for 8 hours or until hypotension treated. If not
corrected, that is systolic blood pressure still <90 mmHg, dopamine 2-20 mcg / kg
/ minute can be given until the systolic blood pressure 110 mmHg. 3-6
If there is seizure, give diazepam 5-20 mg iv slowly for 3 minutes, the
maximum dosage is 100 mg per day, followed by oral administration of
anticonvulsants such as phenytoin, carbamazepine. If the seizure appeared after 2
weeks, given orally long-term anticonvulsant. 3-6
If there is an increased of intracranial pressure, bolus mannitol were given
an of 0.25 to 1 g / kg per 30 minutes intravenously, and if rebound phenomenon
suspected, or general condition deteriorated, followed by 0,25g / kg per 30
16
minutes every 6 hours for 3-5 days. Monitoring of the osmolarity should be
performed (<320 mmol), alternatively can be administered hypertonic solutions
(NaCl 3%) or furosemid. 3-6
4.2.2
Special treatment
The goal is to reperfusion by administration of antiplatelet agent such as
aspirin and anticoagulant, or with trombolytic
therapy
