Indicators of Stroke Prediction Among Cardiac Patients
Stroke is a major cause of morbidity and mortality among patients with cardiovascular conditions. This study aims to identify and evaluate clinical, biochemical, and imaging indicators that predict stroke risk in cardiac patients. We conducted a retrospective cohort study involving 200 patients diagnosed with various cardiovascular diseases from 2020 to 2022 at a tertiary care hospital. Data collected included clinical characteristics, biochemical markers, and imaging results. Statistical analyses were performed to assess the association of these indicators with stroke incidence. The findings revealed a significant association between atrial fibrillation (AF), heart failure, and coronary artery disease (CAD) with increased stroke risk, as well as hypertension and dyslipidemia
