Determinants of stroke following percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with acute coronary syndrome: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Abstract

This study highlights the relatively low prevalence of stroke following PCI, estimated at approximately 1% of the studied population. These findings emphasize the critical need for continued vigilance in identifying and managing risk factors associated with post-PCI stroke in ACS patients. Future research should prioritize refining risk prediction models, developing innovative preventive strategies, and optimizing post-PCI care pathways to effectively reduce the incidence of stroke in this population.
