Certain characteristics of early blood pressure (BP) profiles were reported to be independent predictors of long-term outcome in the first European Cooperative Acute Stroke Study (ECASS-I) trial. The aim of the study was to find out the association of BP profiles with functional outcome, mortality, and hemorrhagic complications in the ECASS-II database.
