OBJECTIVE: The key objective of our study is to lay out the various treatment approaches for cerebrovascular accident cases as well as to identify and analyze the co-morbidities and their respective treatment and additionally we aimed to identify the risk factors for cerebrovascular accident. METHOD: A record based study was conducted for duration of 6 months in the In-patients Department of General Medicine, MIMS Mandya. RESULTS: A total of 110 patients were examined during study period, the occurrence of stroke was higher in males (56.3%) as compared to females (43.6%). In the study of 110 patients, 83.64% of them had ischemic stroke, 14.55% were identified as hemorrhagic stroke and 1.82% was suffered from TIA. The major risk factors identified were Hypertension (90% of total patients) and Diabetes mellitus (47%). 43% of our patients were having the habit of alcohol consumption and 39% were having the habit of smoking. Hypertension and Diabetes mellitus were the two main co-morbidities found, which affected 90% and 49.09% of total patients respectively. Among 110 patients, majority were treated with Antiplatelets (98% of total cases), then Osmotic diuretics (81%), antihypertensives (81%) and Hypolipidemics (79%). Osmotic diuretics + Hypolipidemics + Antiplatelets + Antihypertensives were the most commonly used (39%) combination therapy. CONCLUSION: The cerebrovascular accident cases had a male predominance and majority of them had comorbidities, which are linked to poor outcomes. To enhance patient clinical outcomes, early identification of stroke risk factors and appropriate treatments are essential.
