    Abstract: Stroke is a devastating and costly disease; however, there is a paucity of information on long-term costs and on how they differ according to 3-month modified Rankin scale (mRS) score, which is a primary outcome variable in acute stroke intervention trials. Methods We analyzed a prospective multicenter stroke registry (Clinical Research Collaboration for Stroke in Korea) database through linkage with claims data from the National Health Insurance Service with follow-up to December 2016. Healthcare expenditures were converted into daily cost individually, and annual and cumulative costs up to 5 years were estimated and compared according to the 3-month mRS score. Results Between January 2011 and November 2013, 11,136 patients were enrolled in the study. The mean age was 68 years, and 58% were men. The median follow-up period was 3.9 years (range 0–5 years). Mean cumulative cost over 5 years was $117,576 (US dollars [USD]); the cost in the first year after stroke was the highest ($38,152 USD), which increased markedly from the cost a year before stroke ($8,718 USD). The mean 5-year cumulative costs differed significantly according to the 3-month mRS score ( p 〈 0.001); the costs for a 3-month mRS score of 0 or 5 were $53,578 and $257,486 USD, respectively. Three-month mRS score was an independent determinant of long-term costs after stroke. Conclusions We show that 3-month mRS score plays an important role in the prediction of long-term costs after stroke. Such estimates relating to 3-month mRS categories may be valuable when undertaking health economic evaluations related to stroke care.

    Abstract: Background and Purpose: Stroke is one of the most devastating and costly health problems of today. However, there is lack of knowledge about how costly it is in a long-term perspective and how much the long-term cost differs according to 3-month functional outcome, a major primary outcome variable of acute stroke intervention trials. Methods: Acute ischemic stroke patients who were registered into the multi-center stroke registry (Clinical Research Collaboration for Stroke in Korea, CRCS-K) in South Korea between 2011 and 2013 were matched to the National Health Insurance Service claim database. All the healthcare expenditure was extracted from the claim database and converted into daily cost of each individual. Yearly expenditures and cumulative expenditure up to 5 yeas were obtained and expressed in US dollars and were compared according to 3-month functional outcome (modified Rankin disability scale, mRS).Results: A total of 11,136 acute ischemic stroke patients (mean age, 68 years; men 58%) were analyzed. The median follow-up period was 1,418 days. The mean cumulative healthcare expenditure over 5 years was $74,295 (SD, $91,049) and showed a dramatic increment during the first month followed by a constant increase without a considerable change. The mean 5-year cumulative expenditure differed significantly according to 3-month functional outcome; $32,261 in those with 3-month mRS 0 and $163,244 in those with 3-month mRS 5. After adjusting for the selected potential confounders, the yearly expenditures and the cumulative one at each time point differed significantly according to 3-month mRS scores. Figure given below is showing the median 5-year cumulative daily expenditure by 3-month mRS. Conclusions: This study shows that the impact of 3-month functional outcome on the long-term healthcare expenditure following acute ischemic stroke may be more than expected. The efforts for improving functional outcomes are urgent.

    Abstract: Background: The efficacy of beta-blockers in acute ischemic stroke remains ambiguous. Research targeting high-risk patients, especially those with elevated heart rates, is crucial. Methods: A comprehensive multicenter registry of acute ischemic stroke patients was integrated with the National Health Insurance Service database. We focused on patients exhibiting a heart rate of ≥100 bpm between days 3-7 post-symptom onset. These patients were categorized based on whether they received a beta-blocker prescription by day 8. To account for potential imbalances, we employed Cox’s proportional hazard model with inverse-probability of treatment weighting based on propensity score. The primary outcome was composite of stroke recurrence, myocardial infarction, and mortality within a year post-stroke. Recognizing the significant discontinuation rate of beta-blockers, we conducted an additional analysis on persistent users and landmark analysis at 2-month, 1-year, and 2-year intervals. Results: Out of 5,049 patients, 1,623 (32.1%) were prescribed with beta-blockers by the 8th day. Beta-blocker usage did not significantly influence the primary outcome within the first year (IPTW adjusted HR [95% CI], 0.98 [0.86-1.12] ). However, patients who consistently used beta-blockers beyond 2 months exhibited a reduced mortality risk (adjusted HR, 0.88 [0.78-0.99]). Landmark analysis further revealed that consistent beta-blocker usage notably decreased mortality risk at 8-day to 2-month (IPTW adjusted HR [95% CI] , 0.80 [0.69-0.93]) and 2-month to 1-year intervals (IPTW adjusted HR [95% CI] , 0.80 [0.68-0.94]). Conclusion: Our findings suggest that beta-blockers can potentially reduce mortality in acute ischemic stroke patients, with consistent usage being a pivotal factor.

    Abstract: Background: Incidence of gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding after acute ischemic stroke (AIS) was reported as 1.5% during hospitalization, one-thirds of which required blood transfusion. However, it is not known about the long-term incidence and the incidence rates by period after AIS. Methods: AIS patients who were admitted to the 14 participating hospitals between 2011 and 2013 were identified using a nationwide multicenter prospective stroke registry database. GI bleeding was captured with related diagnosis codes by International Classification of Diseases-10th Revision through the linkage between the registry database and the claims data. Bleeding requiring at least 2 packs of blood transfusion was defined as major GI bleeding. Incidence rates were calculated for each period as follow; 0-30 days, 31-90 days, 91-180 days, 181-365 days, 1-2 years, 2-3years, after 3 years. Results: Of 10,818 AIS patients, 59.0% were male and mean age was 67.5 ± 12.9 years. The median follow-up duration was 3.1 (interquartile range 2.3 to 4.0) years. During 31,208 person-years, 947 patients (8.8%) had 1,224 episodes of major GI bleeding. Annual incidence rate was 3.92 per 100 person-years. The incidence rates by periods were the highest at 19.21 per 100 person-years in the first month of AIS, gradually decreased to 9.02 in one to three months, 6.18 in three to six months, and 3.48 in six to twelve months. After three years, it remained at about 2.62 events per 100 person-years. During the observation period, only one major GI bleeding occurred without recurrence in about 80% of patients, about 13% recurred twice, and about 6% of patients had three or more recurrences. In the multivariable recurrent event analysis, anemia at admission, lower eGFR below 60, and mRS at 3 months ≥4 were independently associated with higher risk of major GI bleeding during the most of the observation period above 3 years. Conclusions: Major GI bleeding, requiring transfusion, seems to occur frequently after AIS, and the risk was gradually decreased after stroke. The efforts are needed to prevent it, especially in stroke patients with anemia and decreased renal function.

    Abstract: The long‐term incidence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) has not been well defined in large cohort studies of various race‐ethnic groups. Methods and Results A prospective cohort of patients with AIS who were registered in a multicenter nationwide stroke registry (CRCS‐K [Clinical Research Collaboration for Stroke in Korea] registry) was followed up for the occurrence of AMI through a linkage with the National Health Insurance Service claims database. The 5‐year cumulative incidence and annual risk were estimated according to predefined demographic subgroups, stroke subtypes, a history of coronary heart disease (CHD), and known risk factors of CHD. A total of 11 720 patients with AIS were studied. The 5‐year cumulative incidence of AMI was 2.0%. The annual risk was highest in the first year after the index event (1.1%), followed by a much lower annual risk in the second to fifth years (between 0.16% and 0.27%). Among subgroups, annual risk in the first year was highest in those with a history of CHD (4.1%) compared with those without a history of CHD (0.8%). The small‐vessel occlusion subtype had a much lower incidence (0.8%) compared with large‐vessel occlusion (2.2%) or cardioembolism (2.4%) subtypes. In the multivariable analysis, history of CHD (hazard ratio, 2.84; 95% CI, 2.01–3.93) was the strongest independent predictor of AMI after AIS. Conclusions The incidence of AMI after AIS in South Korea was relatively low and unexpectedly highest during the first year after stroke. CHD was the most substantial risk factor for AMI after stroke and conferred an approximate 5‐fold greater risk.

    Abstract: Introduction: There have been few reports on status of acute stroke management at a national level worldwide, and none in Korea. This study is aimed to describe the current status and disparities of acute stroke management in Korea. Methods: Data from 5th (2013) and 6th (2014) national surveys for assessing quality of acute stroke care were used. Patients with principal diagnosis codes indicating subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), ischemic stroke (IS), who were admitted via emergency rooms within 7 days of onset at hospitals treating 10 or more stroke cases during the each 3-month survey period were selected. Results: A total of 19,608 stroke cases (age, 67.7±13.5years; female, 45%; IS, 76%; ICH, 15%; SAH, 9%) treated in 216 hospitals were analyzed. Thirty-one percent of hospitals had stroke units and 41% of stroke cases were treated at hospitals without stroke units. In IS, IV thrombolysis (IVT) and endovascular treatment (EVT) rates were 10.7% and 3.6%, respectively. Thirty-nine percent of IVT and fifty-two percent of EVT cases were performed in hospitals with annual volume of 〈 25 IVT and 〈 15 EVT. Centralization of EVT showed disparities by region (Figure). Carotid endarterectomy, carotid artery stenting, decompressive, bypass surgery was conducted in 0.2%, 1.4%, 1.0%, 0.2% of IS cases; decompressive surgery was done in 28.1% of ICH cases; surgical clipping, endovascular coiling was done in 17.2%, 14.3% of SAH cases, respectively. There were noticeable regional disparities in various interventions, use of ambulance, arrival time and provision of stroke unit service. Conclusions: This study is the first report on the status of acute stroke care in Korea on a national level. Large number of recanalization therapies were performed in low-volume-hospitals. Expansion of stroke unit service, stroke center certification or accreditation, and connections between stroke centers and EMS are highly recommended.

    Abstract: Introduction: Higher quality of stroke care based on guideline recommendations is associated with better clinical outcomes. However, there is limited information about contemporary status of quality of stroke care and its association with improvements in clinical outcomes in Korea. Methods: This retrospective observational study was performed by analyzing the data of the patients admitted to 258 acute stroke care hospitals covering an entire country from the Acute Stroke Quality Assessment Program, which was carried out by the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service from 2008 to 2014. Six GWTG-Stroke performance measures (except prophylaxis for venous thromboembolism) were applied to evaluate quality of stroke care in Korea. The primary outcome variable was defect-free care, which is defined as the proportion of patients who received all of the performance measure interventions for which they were eligible. Multivariable analysis was performed to evaluate the association between defect-free care and clinical outcomes. Temporal trends and hospital variations of performance measures were evaluated. Results: Among 43 793 patients (mean age, 67±14 years; male, 55%) with acute stroke during the study period, 31 915 (72.9%) patients were hospitalized due to ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack. The proportion of defect-free care for stroke steadily increased throughout the study period: from 80.2% in 2008 to 92.1% in 2014. Defect-free care was given more frequently in patients admitted to hospitals with a higher volume of stroke cases or intravenous thrombolysis administration, and stroke units. Patients who received defect-free care were associated with discharge to home (adjusted odds ratio 1.96; 95% CI 1.78-2.16) and 1-year survival (adjusted odds ratio 0.41; 95% CI 0.37-0.46). Only 60% of stroke patients were managed in hospitals with a certified stroke unit, and the distribution of certified stroke units showed an urban-to-rural gradient. Conclusions: The quality of stroke care in Korea has improved over time, and defect-free care was associated with discharge to home and 1-year mortality. There are still opportunities to improve the quality of stroke care in Korea by development of stroke networks in Korea.
