We aimed to determine the association of evidence‐based processes of care for acute ischemic stroke ( <jats:styled-content style="fixed-case">AIS</jats:styled-content> ) and clinical outcome of patients who participated in the HEADPOST (Head Positioning in Acute Stroke Trial), a multicenter cluster crossover trial of lying flat versus sitting up, head positioning in acute stroke. </jats:p> </jats:sec> <jats:sec xml:lang="en"> <jats:title>Methods and Results</jats:title> <jats:p xml:lang="en"> Use of 8 <jats:styled-content style="fixed-case">AIS</jats:styled-content> processes of care were considered: reperfusion therapy in eligible patients; acute stroke unit care; antihypertensive, antiplatelet, statin, and anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation; dysphagia assessment; and physiotherapist review. Hierarchical, mixed, logistic regression models were performed to determine associations with good outcome (modified Rankin Scale scores 0–2) at 90 days, adjusted for patient and hospital variables. Among 9485 patients with AIS, implementation of all processes of care in eligible patients, or “defect‐free” care, was associated with improved outcome (odds ratio, 1.40; 95% CI, 1.18–1.65) and better survival (odds ratio, 2.23; 95% <jats:styled-content style="fixed-case">CI</jats:styled-content> , 1.62–3.09). Defect‐free stroke care was also significantly associated with excellent outcome (modified Rankin Scale score 0–1) (odds ratio, 1.22; 95% <jats:styled-content style="fixed-case">CI</jats:styled-content> , 1.04–1.43).

    <jats:p>&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Background:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; Patients with premorbid functional impairment are generally excluded from acute stroke trials. We aimed to determine the impact of including such patients in the Head Positioning in acute Stroke Trial (HeadPoST) and early additional impairment on outcomes. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Methods:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; Post hoc analyses of HeadPoST, an international, cluster-randomized crossover trial of lying-flat versus sitting-up head positioning in acute stroke. Associations of early additional impairment, defined as change in modified Rankin scale (mRS) scores from premorbid levels (estimated at baseline) to Day 7 (“early ΔmRS”), and poor outcome (mRS score 3–6) at Day 90 were determined with generalized linear mixed model. Heterogeneity of the trial treatment effect was tested according to premorbid mRS scores 0–1 versus 2–5. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Results:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; Of 8,285 patients (38.9% female, mean age 68 ± 13 years) with complete data, there were 1,984 (23.9%) with premorbid functional impairment (mRS 2–5). A significant linear association was evident for early ∆mRS and poor outcome (per 1-point increase in ΔmRS, adjusted odds ratio 1.20, 95% confidence interval 1.14–1.27; &lt;i&gt;p&lt;/i&gt; &amp;#x3c; 0.0001). Patients with greater premorbid functional impairment were less likely to develop additional impairment, but their risk of poor 90-day outcome significantly increased with increasing (worse) premorbid mRS scores (linear trend &lt;i&gt;p&lt;/i&gt; &amp;#x3c; 0.0001). There was no heterogeneity of the trial treatment effect by level of premorbid function. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; Early poststroke functional impairment that exceeded premorbid levels was associated with worse 90-day outcome, and this association increased with greater premorbid functional impairment. Yet, including premorbid impaired patients in the HeadPoST did not materially affect the subsequent treatment effect. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Clinical Trial Registration:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; HeadPoST is registered at http://www.ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02162017). </jats:p>

    <jats:sec> <jats:title>Background and Purpose—</jats:title> <jats:p>Infratentorial intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has a poor outcome but is rarely analyzed by cerebellar versus brain stem location. We evaluated this relationship and clinical outcomes among participants of the INTERACT 1 and 2 (Intensive Blood Pressure Reduction in Acute Cerebral Hemorrhage Trials).</jats:p> </jats:sec> <jats:sec> <jats:title>Methods—</jats:title> <jats:p>Participants with brain stem and cerebellar ICH were compared. Logistic regression models were used to compare outcomes of death or major disability and quality of life.</jats:p> </jats:sec> <jats:sec> <jats:title>Results—</jats:title> <jats:p>Of 195 included patients, 92 (47%) and 103 (53%) had brain stem and cerebellar ICH, respectively. Patients with brain stem ICH were younger (mean [SD] age, 59±13 versus 70±11 years), less female (28.3% versus 50.5%), with higher admission National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale scores (median [interquartile range], 6 [4–10) versus 3 [2–8]), less prior ICH (3% versus 17%), smaller ICH volumes (1.6 mL [1.0–2.8 mL] versus 5.1 mL [2.6–10.7 mL]), and less intraventricular extension (3% versus 39%) than those with cerebellar ICH. Brain stem ICH had higher mortality (odds ratio, 37.1; 95% CI, 1.99–692.27) and worse scores in the European Quality of Life Scale (EQ-5D) pain domain (odds ratio, 3.36; 95% CI, 1.38–8.20).</jats:p> </jats:sec> <jats:sec> <jats:title>Conclusions—</jats:title> <jats:p>Cerebellar and brain stem ICH differ in their clinical characteristics and prognosis, with the latter being associated with higher case fatality and worse EQ-5D scores in the pain domain.</jats:p> </jats:sec> <jats:sec> <jats:title>Clinical Trial Registration—</jats:title> <jats:p> URL: <jats:ext-link xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="https://www.clinicaltrials.gov">https://www.clinicaltrials.gov</jats:ext-link> .
