Abstract

Cerebrovascular accidents (CVA)-strokes represent a major public health problem worldwide, due to the large number of people affected. Also, there is a large number of people who die from stroke, especially in developing countries. Our study included a group of 119 patients, diagnosed with stroke and admitted to the Emergency Hospital of Drobeta Turnul-Severin, Mehedinți county, between 2016-2020. The analysis of risk factors and associated comorbidities showed that stroke can affect both the elderly and young people, under 20 years old. However, approximately 4/5 of CVA patients (79.83%) were aged over 50 years old. If non-ischemic strokes predominated in patients under the age of 50, after this age there is a tendency to balance the incidence between the eight main forms of stroke. No significant differences were observed regarding the social environment of the patients, which shows that the risk factors are almost identical in both social environments. Among the modifiable risk factors, we highlighted: high blood pressure in 55.46% of cases, obesity in 19.33% of cases, atherosclerosis in 10.92% of cases, diabetes mellitus in 10.92%, kidney failure in 6.72% of cases. The data we obtained show that there are possibilities to reduce the incidence of stroke by controlling and reducing the modifiable risk factors.

罗马尼亚Mehedinți县三级急救医院收治的中风患者评估。
脑血管意外(CVA)-中风是世界范围内的一个主要公共卫生问题,因为受影响的人数众多。此外,还有大量人死于中风,尤其是在发展中国家。我们的研究包括一组119名患者,他们被诊断为中风,并于2016-2020年间入住Mehedinți县Drobeta Turnul Severin急救医院。对危险因素和相关合并症的分析表明,中风会影响20岁以下的老年人和年轻人。然而,大约4/5的CVA患者(79.83%)年龄在50岁以上。如果非缺血性中风在50岁以下的患者中占主导地位,那么在这个年龄之后,有一种趋势是平衡八种主要中风形式之间的发病率。在患者的社会环境方面没有观察到显著差异,这表明两种社会环境中的风险因素几乎相同。在可改变的风险因素中,我们强调:55.46%的病例患有高血压,19.33%的病例患有肥胖,10.92%的病例患有动脉粥样硬化,10.92%患有糖尿病,6.72%的病例发生肾衰竭。我们获得的数据表明,通过控制和减少可改变的风险因素,有可能降低中风的发生率。
