From Critical Care Medicine. In an international registry of ICU patients with coronavirus disease 2019, stroke was infrequent. Hemorrhagic stroke, but not ischemic stroke, was associated with increased mortality. Further, both hemorrhagic stroke and ischemic stroke were associated with traditional vascular risk factors. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation use was strongly associated with both stroke and death.
From Critical Care Medicine. In this Editorial, the authors discuss an article by Cho et al. entitled “Ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke among critically ill patients with coronavirus disease 2019: An international multicenter coronavirus disease 2019 critical care consortium study.”
