Abstract:
Objective To analyze the relative factors for the prognosis in elderly patients with stroke,and provide theoretical basis for improving prognosis.Methods 188 elderly patients with stroke were treated in our department from Jan.2011 to Nov.2013,and clinical data was analyzed.The prognosis and relative risk factors for stroke were statistically analyzed.Results 99 cases had good prognosis,89 cases had poor prognosis,and the recovery rate were 52.7％ (99/188) and 47.3％ (89/188) respectively.The age was older in group of good prognosis than in group of poor proghosis (t=1.7930,P＜0.05).Univariate analysis showed that the age,position of cerebral infarction,size of lesions,hypertension,diabetes,drinking and smoking were associated with the prognosis of stroke (t=1.7930,x2 =8.6473,15.046,13.1334,4.1536,5.7004,5.9043,respectively,all P＜0.05),while the prognosis was not associated with gender,a family history of stroke,hyperlipidemia and heart disease.Multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed the prognosis of stroke was related with risk factors of age (OR=1.072),size of the lesion (OR=3.481),hypertension (OR=2.034),diabetes (OR=1.631) and smoking (OR=3.144).Conclusions It is beneficial to the prognosis of patients with stroke to stop bad habits and to treat hypertension and diabetes actively.
