The incidence of embolic stroke is higher in elderly patients (> 65 years) with atrial fibrillation with comorbidities like hypertension, diabetes, heart failure and prior stroke. To reduce the above risk, anticoagulation with warfarin or newer oral anticoagulation (NOAC) is given. Even though this is effective in preventing embolic stroke, major bleeding including cerebral hemorrhage and gastrointestinal bleeding are higher, more so in elderly patients at risk of fall. Anticoagulation is also contraindicated in patients who have already had major bleeding. https://lnkd.in/gt4jujCQ #KauveryHospital #StrokeManagement #StrokePrevention #StrokeTreatment #Stroke #RecurrentStroke #RecurrentStrokePrevention #HighRiskPatients #Anticoagulation #NewerOralAntiCoagulation #NOAC #EmbolicStroke #AtrialFibrillation #Hypertension #Diabetes #HeartFailure #Healthcare

Intracardiac Echo (ICE) Imaging-Guided Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion is a highly effective and safe method for treating stroke and atrial fibrillation, especially in seniors. Atrial fibrillation, prevalent in individuals aged 65-70 with conditions like hypertension and diabetes, raises stroke risk due to blood clots in the left atrial appendage (LAA). ICE, an internal ultrasound device, offers real-time imaging of the LAA, enhancing the precision and safety of the LAA closure procedure. Kauvery Hospital Alwarpet utilizes this advanced technique for better patient outcomes. #KauveryHospital #KauveryHospitalAlwarpet #AtrialFibrillation #AtrialFibrillationCauses #AtrialFibrillationSymptoms #AtrialFibrillationPrevention #AtrialFibrillationTreatment #ICE #UltrasoundDevice #IntracardiacEchoImaging #LAA #LeftAtrialAppendage #LeftAtrialAppendageOcclusion #StrokeManagement #Stroke #Healthcare

Head injury, known by the medical term Traumatic Brain Injury or TBI, is one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide. While the causes of TBI can be unique on a case-to-case basis, they can all be classified under motor vehicle accidents as a driver or passenger; motor vehicle accidents as a pedestrian; falls from low or high heights; wilful assault leading to head injury; sporting or recreational injuries; domestic violence and child abuse. When trauma occurs as described above, one of the two possibilities arises: A bruise develops directly at the site of the injury, which is called a coup lesion. Another chance is that the head is jolted back violently, causing the brain to knock on the back of the skull, causing a bruise there, which is called a countercoup lesion. In both cases, the outer lining of the brain, as well as some tissues inside, may get damaged, or some blood vessels may rupture, causing bleeding. In some cases, the brain may swell up, creating intense pressure on the brain from intra-cranial fluid, a condition called raised intracranial pressure. https://lnkd.in/gP6cfhgk #KauveryHospital #TraumaticBrainInjury #TraumaticBrainInjuryCauses #TraumaticBrainInjurySymptoms #TraumaticBrainInjuryPrevention #TraumaticBrainInjuryTreatment #TraumaticBrainInjuryAwareness #TBI #BrainInjury #BrainInjuryCauses #BrainInjurySymptoms #BrainInjurySigns #BrainInjuryPrevention #BrainInjuryTreatment #BrainInjuryAwareness #Healthcare #headInjury #HeadInjuryPrevention #HeadInjuryAwareness #HeadInjuryTreatment #HeadInjurySymptoms #HeadInjuryCauses
