Abstract:
Background:Stroke is still one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Registry-based data of
stroke are scarce in low and middle-income countries such as Mongolia. We aimed to investigate the
incidence and mortality of stroke in adult population of UB Mongolia by stroke registration method.
Material and Method:Covering 611265 (≥15 years old) adult citizens of three districts of Ulaanbaatar, a population-based
prospective study was done from the first, January of 2019 to 31st, December of 2019. All first-ever
and recurrent stroke cases were included using special software, developed for stroke registry, based
on the WHO STEPS approach from participating radiology departments of state hospitals, district
hospitals, and family clinics. Information of stroke death was obtained from forensic institute and state
registration office of the capital city.
Results :In a 1-year study period, 1068 (women 39.1%) stroke cases were registered in people with 60.16±13.66
years old. Stroke incidence rate was 169.81/100000 including first-ever and recurrent events. Stroke
incidence rate was higher in men and people with 80 and above years old. The ratio between IS and
ICH was 1.14:1.0. Stroke mortality was 27.1% and mortality rate was 45.94/100000. The highest rate
mortality was in ICH subtype, male population and older people.
Conclusion:We identified relatively high incidence and mortality rate of stroke in ICH indicating an urgent need for
improvement of arterial hypertension control, health education and primary prevention mainly among
men.
