Description
Efthalia Massou and co-authors group stroke and mini stroke survivors by their mix of long term conditions, in work from twenty twenty-six. Most survivors live with several conditions at once, which strains care built around single diseases. Clear groups could help target care more wisely.
Records for near seventy thousand survivors came from a large United Kingdom primary care database. About ninety-five in a hundred had at least one extra condition, with a median of five per person. Twelve clusters emerged across four age bands. A mental health cluster carried the highest death rates in the middle older band. A dementia led cluster did so in the oldest band. Each age band also held a low need group with the best outcomes.
