Abstract:
Objective To investigate the risk factors of cognitive impairment associated with early post－acute stroke seizures (EPASS). Methods One hundred and sixty－eight eligible patients were recruited in the study. Patients were divided into cognitive impairment group and non－cognitive disorder group according to MMSE. General clinical data, severity of the stroke, location and extent of infarction, characteristics of epileptic seizures were compared between the two groups. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was utilized to investigate the independent risk factors of EPASS related cognitive impairment. Results Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that moderate to severe stroke (OR=4.386, P=0.006), cortical infarction (OR=6.430, P=0.012), general tonic clonic seizure (OR=8.189, P=0.004), seizure frequency≥1 time per day (OR=12.818, P＜0.001) were the independent risk factors for cognitive impairment in EPASS. Conclusions Patients with moderate to severe stroke, cortical infarction, general tonic clonic seizure and seizure frequency≥1 time per day may have a higher risk of cognitive impairment.
