Within-person blood pressure variability during hospitalization and clinical outcomes following first-ever acute ischemic stroke.

In patients with first AIS, SBPV measured as quartiles of SD or CV based on multiple readings throughout hospitalization have no independent prognostic implications for the readmission-free survival, readmission, or mortality. This underscores the importance of overall patientcare rather than a specific focus on BP parameters during hospitalization for AIS.
