Research Article: Correlation Between Hypercoagulable State and Severity Level of Ischemic Stroke With Covid- Infection
Abstract:
Stroke is defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a sudden decline in focal or global neurological function that develops rapidly and lasts more than hours or causes death caused by vascular disorders. Stroke is the biggest cause of death and disability in the world. Based on data from the World Stroke Organization (WSO) for , more than million new stroke events occur yearly, with a death rate of . million. After entering the COVID- pandemic, it was found that stroke accounts for –% of all complications occurs due to infection with COVID-. Acute ischemic stroke, which is defined as a decrease in blood supply to the brain and causes neurological deficits, is the most common cerebrovascular complication (CVD) in COVID- patients. Increased coagulation factors were found in acute ischemic stroke patients with COVID-, indicating a relationship between hypercoagulable states due to COVID infection - with acute ischemic stroke and also influence for improving clinical outcome.
