Stroke outcome #prognostication
☝️#Stroke clinicians are routinely asked by patients and families regarding prognosis.
🧠The cognitive process underlying prognostication is #complex, poorly understood, and sometime #biased by personal experiences
#WeekendLecture
#StrokePrognostication
#Fact: Clinicians, even those with expertise in stroke, perform poorly in predicting clinical outcomes
In this case-based study, overall accuracy for predicting death or disability at discharge was <20%😩

#StrokePrognostication
☝️Several prognostic #models have been developed to aid prognostication after ischemic stroke
These models #outperform clinician #judgment in predicting stroke outcomes

☝️Most prognostic models include #age, sex and stroke #severity as important factors
👉Some include #comorbidities or #time to treatment
☝️Newer models include patients with #reperfusion therapies (thrombolysis/MT)

☝️Predictive models "should not be the sole foundation for clinical decision-making in practice and certainly cannot replace a stroke physician’s comprehensive assessment and clinical acumen"

#Share with us your approach to stroke outcome prediction
Did you have a formal #teaching about stroke prognosis?
How are you dealing with #patients and #families when they ask about prognosis?
Thank you!
