Brest Stroke Registry Tracking Confirmed Stroke Cases in a Defined Area for Incidence and Outcomes

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are gathering all confirmed cases of stroke within a specific geographic area to calculate how often strokes occur. The study aims to provide data on stroke incidence, mortality rates in the short and long term, and medication safety, especially concerning bleeding risks related to anticoagulants. It also explores socio-economic impacts, clinical and genetic predictors of stroke outcomes, and stroke identification algorithms using existing data. This observational registry collects information on ischemic strokes, hemorrhagic strokes, and cerebral venous thrombosis diagnosed after December 31, 2007, in individuals aged over 15 years living in defined communes. It collaborates with other regional registries to analyze bleeding risks from different anticoagulants and follows patients over time to study mortality and recurrence patterns. Participants are included based on validated stroke diagnoses and residence in the specified area. The study tracks the type of stroke at diagnosis and follows patient outcomes annually for up to 10 years. This long-term monitoring includes clinical data collection to assess mortality, recurrence, and the impact of socio-economic factors, supporting improvements in stroke management and care quality.
