Questions about Hyperglycemia
Does having marked hyperglycemia increase stroke bleeding risk with bridging therapy?
Yes, marked hyperglycemia (glucose >11.1 mmol/L) significantly increases the risk of parenchymal hematoma (bleeding) when bridging therapy is used instead of direct endovascular thrombectomy for stroke.
