Abstract

Prediction of functional outcome in ischemic stroke patients using some important hemorheological parameters (such as blood viscosity hematocrit (Htc), platelet aggregation and leukocyte count), protein C, protein S, antithromin III, serum albumin, location and size of infarction. The results were that serum albumin at admission is an independent predictive factor of the functional outcome in ischaemic stroke patients. Increased hematocrit level and total leukocytic count at the time of ischemic stroke are associated with less favorable outcome. Blood viscosity is not related to stroke outcome however it is significant correlated with size of infarction. Antithrombin III, protein S, protein C, platelet aggregation, blood viscosity, site or size of infarction are not related to stroke outcome.
