Time and Severe Hypoperfusion: 2 Threats for Hemorrhagic Transformation in Stroke
International Journal of Stroke (IJS) recently shared a post on X:
”Just Accepted!
Study finds hemorrhagic transformation was associated with onset-to-imaging time and presence of severe hypoperfusion. No interaction found between time and severe hypoperfusion.”

A new study is reinforcing the importance of timely management of stroke in an article ‘Association between Time and Severe Hypoperfusion with Risk of Hemorrhagic Transformation in Stroke Patients’ by Umberto Pensato et al., published in International Journal of Stroke (IJS).
Emerging evidence highlights that both severe hypoperfusion and time spent in a hypoperfused state contribute to the risk of parenchymal hematoma (PH) in ischemic stroke.
A recent analysis confirms that while each factor independently increases the likelihood of hemorrhagic transformation (HT), their interaction was not statistically significant.
These findings suggest that the risk of HT is influenced by distinct pathways related to hypoperfusion severity and duration.
Identifying patients with a “leaky core”—those with severely compromised blood-brain barriers—could enhance patient selection for targeted interventions!
