ACUTE STROKE EVALUATED BY COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY

Journal of Medical Practice and Review ,Volume 2019

Abstract

Objective: to evaluate the stroke by spiral computed tomography (CT)Scan.


Setting: the study was conducted in the spiral CT. scan units in Ibn-Sena and Al-Salam teaching hospital in Mosul city.


Subject: five hundred patients were analyzed by CT. scan who had stroke features in 8 age groups.


Method: all patients examined by spiral CT scan ( Siemens Somatom Plus 4) and Philips made in Holland. Also they are examined for glucose and serum cholesterol levels.


Results: out of 500 patients, 260 patients (52%) male, 240 patients (48%) female. Male : female ratio is (1.1 : 1). CT. scan showing that 366 patients (73.14%) were ischemic infarction, 87 patients (17.42%) were hemorrhagic infraction, 206 patients (41.1%) were hypertensive, the blood pressure > 140 mmHg, 188 patients (38.8%) were diabetic, the blood glucose level of 124 patients (66.17%) ranged > 10mmol/ L, 114 (22.8%) have high cholesterol level > 220mgL 100ml.


Conclusion: CT. scan is an established tool for diagnosis of ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke. Hypertension, Diabetes mellitus, hupercholesterolemia are the most important risk factor for acute stroke. The sensitivity was (85%), specificity was (81%), and accuracy was (62%).
