摘要

Background: Stroke previously thought to be a major public health problem in developed nations is showing an alarming upward trend in developing countries also. WHO projects that burden of disease, in case of stroke would predominantly be in developing nations over the next two-three decades. Not much work has been done in this region of North India on stroke, so a hospital based study was planned to know the incidence and risk factors associated with the disease in Jammu region of J & K State, India. Materials and Methods: A study of all the indoor hospitalized cases of newly diagnosed acute stroke was conducted in the neurology and general medicine wards of Government medical college Hospital (GMCH) Jammu for the period of one year w.e.f November 1~(st) 2010 to October 31~(st) 2011. The relevant information was collected by using the predesigned and pretested questionnaire during the study period. The data was collected, collated and interpreted using appropriate stastical tests. Results: The incidence of first ever stroke cases was estimated to be 0.55% (209/37530) i.e. 209 cases of first ever stroke among total admissions of 37530. This incidence was 1.25% (209/16645) when denominator was used for admissions specific to indoor general medicine patients. The incidence worked out to be 49.76% (209/420) when denominator was used for neurology specific indoor patients. Incidence was found to be more in people aged >50 years of age group. Out of various risk factors studied hypertension was found to be the most commonly associated risk factor. Conclusion: The study shows incidence is more in the population of >50 years of age group and hypertension is the leading risk factor associated with the disease.
