Advantages and Limitations of Anesthesia and Sedation Practices Used Among Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients during Endovascular Revascularization Therapy
… to improve functional outcomes (as measured by a modified Rankin scale) among AIS patients undergoing endovascular revascularization therapy by 26.5% at 30-days follow up as compared to previous.</p>

Der Einsatz von Abciximab (ReoPro®) in der Akutbehandlung von ischämischen Hirninfarkten mit und ohne vorangehende Thrombolysebehandlung mit rt-PA
… Thrombolyse. Alle Patienten wurden anhand der modified Rankin Scale (mRS) zum Zeitpunkt des Eintreffens in der Klinik und am Tag der Entlassung von der Stroke Unit untersucht. Ergebnisse: 88% der Patienten (57/65) verbesserten sich um im Mittel 2,3 Punkte bezogen auf die mRS. 71% der Patienten …

Improving outcome assessment for clinical trials in stroke
… the uses and properties of outcome assessment scales for stroke trials are described, with particular attention given to the modified Rankin Scale (mRS). Through comprehensive literature review I will show that mRS is the most frequently used functional outcome scale in clinical trials but …

The management of post-infectious hydrocephalus in people living with HIV: a prospective observational study
… Survival outcomes and neurological function (modified Rankin Scale) were assessed. The cohort was divided into non-randomised treatment groups, surgical (ventriculoperitoneal shunts/ external ventricular drain) and medical (lumbar spinal taps) based on institutional practice. Results PIH …

Clinical Outcomes Associated with Speech, Language and Swallowing Difficulties Post-Stroke – A Prospective Cohort Study
… degree of physical disability according to the Modified Rankin Scale [mRS], functional level of oral intake according to the Functional Oral Intake Scale [FOIS], dehydration, weight loss, aspiration pneumonia, mortality). Methods: Adults with a new incident of stroke without pre-existing speech, …

Expanding the evidence of endovascular treatment for acute ischemic stroke: patient–centered outcomes, population–level impact, and patients presenting with mild stroke symptoms
… with mild stroke symptoms. The miFUNCTION scale was shown to display greater granularity in the mild to moderately–severe disability range post–stroke compared to the modified Rankin Scale and thus provide more insight into the patient's ability and capacity to engage in meaningful life …

Acupuncture during stroke rehabilitation: development of a manual for researching a complex intervention
… the Functional Independence Measure (FIM), Modified Rankin Scale of global disability (mRS) and assessments of sleep, swallowing and bowel function(at baseline and discharge, with mRS also at 6-month follow-up). Confidence intervals were compared across mild, moderate and severe subgroups. …

Machine learning models for functional impairment risk prediction in ischemic stroke patients
… with Multi-phase CT Angiography (PROVE-IT). The Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score was used to assess the 90-day functional impairment status. The accuracy of machine-learning models such as random forest (RF), classification and regression tree (CART), support vector machine (SVM), C5.0 decision …

Occluson Pattern in Circle of Willis: Prognostic Marker for Endovascular Treatment in Acute Carotid Terminus Occlusion
… were compared. Poor prognosis was defined as modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 5 and 6 at 3 months. We evaluated whether MCA plus group would be a ‘stop sign’ of further endovascular treatment for acute CTO by analyzing logistic regression model and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. …
