            other anticonvulsants are 
prescribed in the management of seizures that may 
accompany the postoperative course of stroke.  
Stroke Treatment 
7. If the patient survives, the final task consists of the 
institution of preventive therapy, administration of 
medications that reduce the risk of another stroke 
(statins and antihypertensive drugs), and initiation of 
rehabilitation (physical and speech therapy).

1. Identify risk factors 
a. Hypertension* 
b. Congestive heart failure* 
c.
Diabetes mellitus* 
d. TIA or previous stroke* 
e. Increasing age ≥75 years* 
f.
Elevated blood cholesterol or lipid levels 
g. Coronary atherosclerosis 
h. Cigarette smoking 
Risk of stroke increases by a factor of 1.5 for each 
condition above indicated by*.  
Thus, having multiple risk factors listed above 
greatly increases the risk of a stroke.

2. Encourage control of risk factors  
(referral to a physician, if appropriate). 
3. Obtain a thorough history of stroke 
I.
Note the date of the event, current status, medical 
therapy, and any residual disabilities. 
II.
Provide only urgent dental care during the first 6 
months after a stroke, TIA, or Rind. 
III. Avoid elective care in patients who have had recent 
TIAS or RINDS. 
IV. Determine risk for bleeding problems in patients 
taking 
anticoagulant 
drugs, 
and 
minimize 
perioperative bleeding;

3. Obtain a thorough history of stroke 
Minimize perioperative bleeding; 
a) Aspirin + dipyridamole (Aggrenox), ticlopidine 
(Ticlid); obtain pretreatment PFA 100. 
b) Coumarin-Pretreatment INR 3.5. Higher levels 
require consultation with a physician to reduce the 
dose. 
c) Heparin (IV)—Use palliative emergency dental care 
only, or 6 to 12 hours before surgery, discontinue 
heparin, and start another anticoagulant (e.g., 
coumadin) with the physician’s approval. Then, 
restart heparin after the clot forms (6h later).

3. Obtain a thorough history of stroke 
Minimize perioperative bleeding; 
d) Heparin (subcutaneous, low molecular weight)—
generally, no changes are required. 
 
e) Use measures that minimize hemorrhage (atraumatic 
surgery, pressure, gelfoam, suturing), as needed. 
 
f) Have available non-adrenergic hemostatic agents and 
devices (stents, electrocautery).

5. Monitor blood pressure and oxygen saturation. 
4. Schedule short appointments.   
Schedule short, stress-free, midmorning appointments. 
Provide N20-02 inhalation as needed.
