Abstract:
Cerebrovascular disease (CVD) or stroke is defined as a quick failure of human brain tasks, leading to the focal neurological
deficit secondary to interruption of blood delivery to the brain.
Due to lack of authentic data of stroke in Pakistan it is very difficult to estimate the valid prevalence. The descriptive case series
study was conducted at Peoples University of Medical and Health Sciences Hospital, Nawabshah. The “Rao-soft†(Software)
was used to calculate sample size, by using proportion at 97.5% of confidential interval and 2.5% of margin of error and it was
collected by non Probability Convenience Sampling. Occurence of Intra-cerebral Hemorrhage was found 4.8%, from a total
sample i.e. n=100. Out of 100 Hypertensive patients, males were 68 and females were 32 with a ratio of 2:1 approximately, with
a mean age of 41 years. In conclusion, Hemorrhagic Stroke commonly found in association with Hypertension, Diabetes Mellitus
and Cigarettes Smoking in this study, which might increase the mortality. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of
Hypertension, Diabetes Mellitus and Smoking in hemorrhagic stroke patients reported at PUMHSW Hospital Nawabshah.
