Does hypertonic glycerol infusion plus dexamethasone improve survival rates and quality of survival in acute stroke patients compared to dexamethasone alone?
The addition of hypertonic glycerol infusion to dexamethasone does not significantly improve short-term survival or quality of survival in acute stroke patients.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
No benefit from adding hypertonic glycerol to dexamethasone in acute stroke; confirms neutral effect on short-term survival and quality of survival.
Albizzati et al. (2009) studied this question.
