Patient with acute ischemic stroke

Medical (Neurology)

Background As the most common type of stroke, ischemic strokes pose a significant burden on public health systems and individuals alike. With its pervasive impact across diverse patient populations, strokes constitute a significant source of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Objective To determine the patient with acute ischemic stroke Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted at First affiliated hospital of Xinjiang Medical University, Urumqi, Xinjiang, China which was performed between September 2023 to August 2024, The total number of patients in our study were 100. The number of Male patients in our study were 65 and female were 35. For all patients, we did diagnostic tests, (Angiography, CT Scan, MRI). For treatment, we used angioplasty and student procedure. We also took parameters of BMI (kg/m2). We excluded pregnant women and children in our study. Data was tabulated and analyzed by SPSS version 27. Results In a current study total 100 patients were enrolled. The minimum age of patients were 54 years and the maximum age of the patients were 85 years. The mean age were 67.60±10.345 years. The minimum BMI of patients were 24 (Kg/m2) and the maximum BMI were 37 (Kg/m2). The mean BMI were 29.80±4.078 (Kg/m2). The frequency of thrombus were not present in 30 patients and its percentage were 30% and the frequency of thrombus were present in 70 patients. P-value were 0.02. The frequency of atherosclerosis were not present in 80 patients and were present in 20 patients. The frequency of embolus were not present in 90 patients and were present in 10 patients. The frequency of arm weakness were not present in 85 patients and were present in 15 patients. The frequency of patients diagnosed on Angiography were 40, diagnosed on CT scan were 50 and patients diagnosed on flair MRI were 10. The frequency of treatment angioplasty were 40 and its percentage were 40%. The frequency of emergency IV (TPA) were 60. The frequency of complications of chest infection were 3, the frequency of fever were 9, the frequency of no complication were 83 and the frequency of UTI were 5 and its percentage were 5%. In our study P-Value were less than (< 0.05). Conclusion We concluded that angioplasty and stenting is the best procedure used to treat acute ischemic stroke (AIS) by opening blocked arteries and restoring blood flow to the brain. We can diagnose acute ischemic stoke in emergency condition by CT scan. In a current study males were more as compared to females.
