Coexisting Dual Mechanisms of Ischaemic Stroke: <i>Frequency and outcomes in a university hospital-based stroke registry</i>
Up to 1 in 7 patients with IS may have an additional mechanism of stroke. Such patients are likely older, with poorly controlled risk factors, worse sensorium and possibly worse outcomes. SVD is the most common additional stroke mechanism. Studies to explore the influence of dual stroke mechanisms on outcomes, as well as strategies for secondary prevention, are indicated.
