Özet
With the widespread use of acute revascularization treatments in ischemic stroke, admission rates to the intensive care unit are increasing. While patients are followed up in the NICU, the main purpose is to provide systemic homeostasis. Respiratory safety should be ensured in patients, and SpO2 should be kept above 94. Patients with a low Glasgow coma score, loss of respiratory tract reflexes, large MCA infarction, seizures, and hypoxichypercarbic respiratory problems should be intubated and followed up with MV. Blood pressures should be kept below 180/105 mmHg if reperfusion therapy has been applied, and if followed by medical therapy, they should not be intervened unless they exceed 220/120 mmHg. Blood glucose should be kept in the range of 140-180 mg dl. If there is fever, it should be reduced, and the cause should be determined. All patients should be screened for dysphagia in the first 24 hours. Enteral feeding should be started within 48-72 hours. The neurological status of the patients should be closely followed and should be investigated for intracranial complications in the case of worsening. As a result, follow-up of ischemic stroke patients in NICUs reduces mortality and morbidity, and therefore, stroke centers and neurology intensive care units should become widespread. © 2024 by Nova Science Publishers, Inc.
