Plasma bioactive adrenomedullin predicts outcome after acute stroke in early rehabilitation.

ABSTRACT: An early and reliable prediction of outcomes after stroke is important for early effective stroke management and the adequate optimal planning of post-stroke rehabilitation and long-term care. Bioactive adrenomedullin (bio-ADM) is a 52-amino acid peptide that is an important peptide hormone in nervous system diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic value of bio-ADM on outcomes after rehabilitation in patients with stroke. A total of 557 consecutive patients with a primary diagnosis of ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke (age 69.6-12.9 years, male 51.3%, ischemic stroke 72.5%), who were admitted to an in-patient early rehabilitation center directly after discharge from acute stroke hospital care, were enrolled in this prospective observational study.
