USPSTF Recommends Against Screening for Asymptomatic Carotid Artery Stenosis in General Population
JAMA
EMBARGOED FOR RELEASE: 11 A.M. (ET), TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 2021
Media advisory: To contact the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force, email the Media Coordinator at Newsroom@USPSTF.net or call 301-951-9203. The full report and related articles are linked to this news release.
Embed this link to provide your readers free access to the full-text article This link will be live at the embargo time and all USPSTF articles remain free indefinitely https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/10.1001/jama.2020.26988?guestAccessKey=3c18e07e-f511-4372-8d9b-8ead997be0ed&utm_source=For_The_Media&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=ftm_links&utm_content=tfl&utm_term=020221
Bottom Line: The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommends against screening for asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis in the general adult population. Carotid artery stenosis is the narrowing of arteries that supply blood to the brain. This recommendation applies to adults without a history of transient ischemic attack, stroke or other neurologic signs or symptoms related to the carotid arteries. Although asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis is a risk factor for stroke, it causes a relatively small proportion of strokes. The USPSTF routinely makes recommendations about the effectiveness of preventive care services and this statement is consistent with its 2014 recommendation.
