Analysis of the main factors influencing the development of ischemic stroke

Based on the analysis of 160 patients aged 30 to 60 years who were treated in the neurological department at the Engels City Hospital № 2 State Autonomous Health Institution with a diagnosis of acute cerebral circulation disorder of the ischemic type with damage to the vessels of the vertebro-basilar basin, an analysis of the main factors affecting the development of ischemic stroke was carried out. The study shows that the main risk factors for ischemic stroke, regardless of sex, include the presence of hypertension and is a risk factor for ischemic stroke. Moreover, the longer the duration of hypertension, the higher the risk of stroke. Moreover, the longer the duration of hypertension, the higher the risk of stroke. By analyzing the data that were obtained during the study, circumstances were established that were equally likely to affect members of both sexes. Such factors include: the presence of arterial hypertension, signs of impaired lipid metabolism, hypodynamy. In addition to common factors, those that were most common among females – the presence of signs of obesity and male – current smoking – were identified. All these circumstances can contribute to the development of acute cerebral circulation disorder of the ischemic type. Taking into account the main risk factors for ischemic stroke, we formulated the principles that underlie the prevention of the development of this complication. In this regard, it is important to identify and prescribe treatment for this pathology in a timely manner, in which periodic dispensary examinations are assigned an important role. The accuracy with which such routine work should be performed helps to timely detect signs of an increase in blood pressure in the subject. Send him in time for an examination, which will be carried out in full, which will help to make a correct diagnosis.
