Impact of anemia on in‐hospital complications after ischemic stroke

Abstract: Background and purpose In‐hospital complications after stroke represent barriers to optimal recovery and are even potentially life‐threatening. Anemia is common in stroke patients and is related to poor outcome after stroke. Less is known, however, of the association of anemia with complications. We aimed to investigate the impact of anemia on a series of in‐hospital complications after ischemic stroke. Methods Consecutive patients with ischemic stroke within 7 days were included. Anemia on admission and its s… Show more

“…Anaemia has been an independent risk factor for adverse outcomes in various diseases, including pneumonia, stroke, and heart failure [28,29] . It has been proven thatpneumonia patients with anaemiaare at greater risk of poor outcomes and nosocomial infections in community-acquired pneumonia,and in uenza A [6,7,30] .…”

“…The frequent presence of chronic kidney disease, increased systemic inflammation, iron deficiency, insufficient levels of erythropoietin, bone marrow unresponsiveness and the effect of chronic medical therapy may lead to this fact [ [22] , [23] , [24] , [25] ]. Anemia could lead to decreased oxygen delivery and, subsequently, aggravation of symptoms such as dyspnea and fatigue, and thus further impair exercise tolerance and quality of life, prompting hospital admission [ 16 , 26 ]. In a large meta-analysis with 153,180 patients with HF, the crude mortality risk of anemia had an odds ratio of 1.96 (95% confidence interval: 1.74 to 2.21), and the adjusted hazard ratio was 1.46 (95% confidence interval: 1.26 to 1.69), with no difference between patients with a reduced or preserved LVEF [ 27 ].…”

“…Significant drop in Hb over 3 g/dL and/or requiring transfusion of blood products without apparent source of bleeding was defined as obscure bleeding [ 13 ]. Anemia was defined by the WHO definitions as Hb < 12 g/dL in woman and Hb < 13 g/dL in men [ 16 ]. CHA 2 DS 2 ­VASc [ 17 ] and HAS-BLED [ 18 ] scores were used to assess thromboembolic and hemorrhagic risks in the subgroup of patients with AF.…”

“…Functional failure was defined as the suboptimal result of PMVR during follow up (residual or recurrent MR 3+ or 4+ and/or transmitral mean gradient ≥ 5 mmHg). Anemia was defined according to the World Health Organization as a concentration of serum hemoglobin < 12 g/dL in women and < 13 g/dL in men [9] . A composite primary endpoint of readmission for HF and all-cause death was established to define the prognostic impact of frailty in this series.…”
