Carotid compression should '''never''' be practiced when carotid plaques could be present due to the high risk of plaque dislodgement and embolic stroke. More than 50% of older adults (>60 years old) have some degree of carotid plaque formation. Middle-aged adults (40-60 years old) can develop carotid plaques, with higher prevalence among those with risk factors (hypertension, high cholesterol, smoking, diabetes, cardiovascular disease). | Carotid compression should '''never''' be practiced when carotid plaques could be present due to the high risk of plaque dislodgement and embolic stroke.
