Continuous versus intermittent physiological monitoring for acute stroke

Complications in the first week after stroke: a 10-year comparison

“…Hence, the patients with moderate stroke might be the group where system factors like blood pressure, oxygen saturation and temperature are likely to be of most importance for progression. In a review from the Cochrane Library they also found a trend towards reduced rate of neurological complications like progressing stroke in stroke units with continuous monitoring which is quite similar to our result [ 27 ]. However in the Cochrane review no stratification by severity of the stroke was performed.…”

Intensive vital signs monitoring reduces 30-day mortality among stroke patients: A cohort study from Tanzania

“…The observed mortality of 35.9% in the intensive group represents a marked improvement compared to the 49.7% mortality in the usual practice monitoring group. These results align with global evidence suggesting that early detection and intervention for clinical deterioration are critical in improving survival rates [ 6 , 8 , 9 , 21 ]. Given the multifactorial nature of stroke outcomes, we undertook an adjusted analysis using multivariable modified Poisson regression, an approach appropriate for outcomes with high prevalence such as 30-day mortality.…”

“…The observed difference may reflect evolving hemodynamic responses influenced by more timely clinical recognition and management in the intensively monitored group. Structured monitoring may have enabled earlier detection of deviations from normal physiology and prompted prompt intervention, consistent with findings from stroke unit care models in high-income settings [ 6 , 9 ].…”

European stroke organisation guideline on stroke-associated pneumonia

“…The authors conclude that continuous monitoring in the first 2–3 days may improve outcomes, but high-quality studies are still needed to define its role. 188 …”
