Stroke is divided into 2, hemorrhagic and ischemic, with ischemic being the most prevalent type. Management of risk factors is vital in lowering the incidence of ischemic stroke. As such, constant surveillance and description of risk factors are pivotal.
Objective: to describe the risk factor profile of ischemic stroke in inpatients of the neurology department of Dr. Soetomo General Hospital in January 2024-June 2024
Method: This research uses retrospective descriptive method.
Results: The results of this research found 141 patients (70%) were in the <65 year age group, 117 male patients (58%), 69 patients (37%) with previous stroke history, 100 patients (49%) with grade 2 hypertension, 123 patients (62%) with history of hypertension, has desired levels of total cholesterol numbering 102 patients (62%), near optimal levels of LDL-C numbering 53 patients (32%), low levels of HDL numbering 80 patients (49%), normal levels of triglyceride numbering 105 patients (65%), with diabetes mellitus 87 patients (44%), with history of diabetes mellitus numbering 71 patients (36%), and has smoking habits numbering 45 patients (49%).
Conclusion: Prominent risk factors found are <65 year age group, male sex, previous stroke history, history of hypertension, grade 2 hypertension, low HDL, near optimal LDL-C, borderline high triglyceride, borderline high total cholesterol, and smoking.
