61 patients (age 20-59 years) treating in the Department for Internal Medicine were investigated using descriptive method. These patients have not any endocrine disease. There are significant difference in serum lipid and lipoprotein levels between patients with cerebrovascular stroke and general population. Common types of dyslipidemia are that can cause risk for developing arteriosclerosis, in which type IV is 59.02%.

Subjects are 540 patients, including 320 males and 220 females, mean age 62.1±11.8, ranged from 11 to 84 years old. Rate of lacunar infarction is 29%. Hypertension and diabetes are 2 major risk factors as well as are causes of lacunar infarction. Idiopathic cerebral infarction accounts for high rate (46%). Progress and prognosis of lacunar infarction is better than other ischemic strokes.

The assessment is made on 139 acute stroke patients treated at the Central Military Hospital 108 from December 2000 to September 2001. Out of these 139 patients (64 with intracerebral haemorrhage, 75 with cerebral infarction), 8 patients had gastroitestinal haemorrhage. The patient's ages ranged from 20 years old to 91 years old. Gastrointestinal haemorrhage occurred in stroke patients, both intracerebral haemorrhage (4 out of 8 cases) and cerebral infarction (4 out of 8 cases). Gastrointestinal haemorrhage tends to occur more on stroke patients with higher age. Gastrointestinal haemorrhage often occurs during the first ten days after the stroke. The anemia caused by gastrointestinal haemorrhage in stroke patients is not serious but it often causes serious conscious disturbances. Gastrointestinal haemorrhage increases the risk of aspiration pneumonia resulting in high death rate.

A study on 105 patients with stroke in the central hospital 108 has shown that the rate of discharge was 95%, of which 37% of patients can walk, 23% of patients can walk with stick, 35.2% of patients have not be able to walk. The average duration of treatment was 32 days. The treatment involved the maintenance of circulation - respiratory function, anti-brain edema, anti-infection and active nursing. The cause of sequala was late and inactive care

Cerebro-vascular accident occurs mainly in subjects of > 60 years old (84%). The rehabilitation carried out in 59 patients with hemiplegia using physiotherapy gave good results on 69.5% of patients. Functional restoration by physiotherapy diminished with the rise of age

This study was carried out on 44 patients with celebrovascular accident (CVA) at Huu Nghi Hospital. Results showed that CVA infarctus particularly happens in the rest time much more than in working time (66.0%). 86.6% of the patients had been started to rehabilitation is less than 10 days after CVA. Average distance of the time from CVA to: help to sit up: 4.59 days, one's self sit up: 8.29 days, help to stand up: 9.55 days, one's self stand up: 10.5 days, help to walk: 10.87 days, one's self walk: 13.26 days

Hypertension-related cerebral strokes, including ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes, were evaluated at the H÷u NghÞ Hospital from January 1998 to April 2000. Patients were treated and disease progress was evaluated by using the Barthel-Mahoney scale. There were 86 cases of complication in the patients who have had hypertension for 5-20 years. This number in those who have had hypertension for more than 20 years was 12 cases and in those who have had hypertension for less than 5 years is 19 cases. Treatment regimen used in this study had good effect only on patients with hypertension-related cerebral hemorrhage, and had almost no effect on patients with hypertension-related cerebral ischemia. B-M scale has a value in assessment the recovery for patients who were over 10 days of emergency

The cerebrovacular malformation mainly comprised arteriovenous fistula and cerebral aneurysm and usually occurred clinically stroke due to the bleeding, vascular rupture or aneurysm rupture. There were numerous patients with cerebrovascular malformation that undiagnosed because of no bleeding or unhospitalization. It was remain controversial problem that it should where be early operated or not to prevent from vasoconstriction.

80 patients with post-stroke have come to the Rehabilitation Dep. of Bach Mai hospital for rehabilitation. All of them have participated in two randomized divided groups with different ways of rehabilitation intervention. In the first group, 40 patients have received only moving exercises, while in the 40 patients have received moving exercises with ankle foot orthosis (AFO). In our study, it found that the patients of the second group have improvement in their walking gain. After 3-6 months of rehabilitation intervention, they have a good weight bearing on the affected leg. 80% of them with good mark(P<0,01); average cadence also increases 81,95 walk/minute(p<0.01); independence in walking is about 82,5% compared with patients of group without AFO (P<0,05). AFO could prevent drop foot for hemiplegics. It is useful for the hemiplegics to improve their walking gait.

Subjects: the group control: 31 persons with ages of over 40, without the cerebrovascular accident; the group disease: 51 patients with the cerebrovascular accident in the Hue Central hospital during 2/1999 - 5 /2000 method: the Bila lipid of their blood were collected to quantify. The results have shown that 70.5% patients with the cerebrovascular accident had a disorder of lipemia. There was a stastistical significant different between group control and group disease. The classification of the disorder found that group A, D, C, B were 54.5%, 21.2%, 15.2%, 9.1%, respectively; type II: 75.8%; type IIb: 17.2% and type III: 6.8%. It should be tested the minimal Biland lipid in the blood in persons with the risk factors of the cerebrovascullar accident to early discover the lipidemia which helps prevention from the complications due to the disorder of lipemia.
