Arterial ischemic stroke in infants, children, and adolescents: results of a Germany-wide surveillance study 2015-2017.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:Childhood arterial ischaemic stroke (AIS) is rare, but causes significant morbidity and mortality. We aimed to investigate incidence, age-dependent clinical presentation, and risk factors and to discuss the medical care situation in Germany. METHODS:This prospective epidemiological study was conducted via ESPED (Erhebungseinheit für Seltene Pädiatrische Erkrankungen in Deutschland), a hospital-based German nation-wide surveillance unit for rare pediatric diseases. Children aged 28 days-18 years with first AIS between January 2015 and December 2017 were included. RESULTS:In the 3-year period, 164 children were reported. Incidence showed peaks in infants, children < 2 years of age, and adolescents (12-18 years), with a significant male predominance observed in adolescents only. Independent of age, most children (91%) presented with focal symptoms, particularly with acute hemiparesis. The occurrence of seizures in infants (57%) and more nonspecific symptoms in school-children and adolescents (54%) is considered noteworthy. Prothrombotic states (34%), cardiac disorders (29%), and arteriopathies (19%) were the most frequently identified risk factors. The majority of children (72/131, thus 55%) were discharged home after acute care phase. At time of discharge, most common neurological symptoms were hemiparesis (42%), facial palsy (15%), and speech disturbance (12%). CONCLUSION:This study provides population-based data of childhood AIS which may be useful for further research. The improvement of acute stroke management is needed for children, but also the standardization of post-stroke care in the outpatient setting has to be structured. Considering the higher stroke incidence in (male) adolescents, it is advisable to combine research activities in adolescents and young adults.
