What factors predict disability after minor stroke and TIA?
Patients with TIA and minor stroke
Disability
Baseline NIHSS scores, especially for limb weakness, along with subsequent stroke and medical complications, are powerful predictors of disability in patients with minor stroke and TIA.
After TIA and minor stroke, subsequent stroke and medical complications are strongly associated with disability. In addition, even within a low range of baseline scores, the NIHSS is a powerful predictor of disability in minor stroke patients, with items scoring limb weakness particularly associated with subsequent disability.
