D-dimer Prognostic Marker of Cerebral Infarction After Revascularization Procedure

Sponsor: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens

Summary

Cerebral infarction is the leading cause of acquired disability in adults. Absence of biological marker used in current practice and identified as a prognostic factor for recovery. D-dimers are degradation products of stabilized fibrin translating an activation of coagulation whatever the cause. Studies have shown that increased D-dimer levels in patients with MI is associated with a higher mortality rate, the link with post-intervention non-revascularization has been demonstrate. The purpose of this project is to search for a correlation between the level of D-dimer and the degree of recovery evaluated by the NIHSS score
