Article Synopsis
- Hemodynamic depression, a common issue in carotid angioplasty and stenting, includes complications like bradycardia and hypotension, impacting patient care.
- A study conducted at Shiraz University analyzed 170 patients from 2011 to 2013, monitoring factors like blood pressure, stenosis degree, and technical details during the procedure.
- Results indicated that pre-procedure blood pressure and the choice of stent design significantly affected post-procedural hemodynamic stability, suggesting that proper hydration and using close-cell stents may help reduce risks.

Background: Carotid angioplasty and stenting (CAS) is an accepted treatment to prevent stroke in patients with carotid artery stenosis. The purpose of this study is to identify risk factors for major complications after CAS.
Materials And Methods: This is a prospective study that was conducted at Shiraz University of Medical Sciences in southern Iran from March 2011 to June 2014.
Background And Purpose: The epidemiology of stroke and its subtypes in the Middle East is unclear. Most previous studies have been performed in Western countries, and incidence rates are unlikely to apply in the Middle East. We aimed to determine the incidence of stroke in Mashhad, northeastern Iran.
