No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) is one of the important risk factors influencing poor outcomes and death in stroke patients. Over the past two decades, accumulating evidence suggests that post-stroke brain injury mobilizes the adrenergic system, which induces post-stroke immunosuppression and SAP. This study is designed to test the safety and efficacy of an adrenergic β-receptor blocker, propranolol, with or without combination of antibiotics, in reducing SAP in stroke patients. The underlying immune mechanisms will be investigated.
