Abstract
While 90-day outcomes were more favorable than in the elderly, midlife stroke survivors faced some disability and did not experience better QOL despite better outcomes. Additional research should identify targets to optimize secondary stroke prevention and improve outcomes in midlife stroke survivors-an understudied group with great potential disability and economic impact.
