RISK FACTORS FOR ACUTE CEREBROVASCULAR ACCIDENTS IN ELDERLY PATIENTS
Abstract
A risk factor is a sign that precedes a disease and has an independent, stable probable connection and is important in its prognosis. A risk factor is a predictor that allows one to estimate the likelihood of a disease occurring both in an individual and in the population as a whole. Timely identification and correction of risk factors is a promising direction for the prevention of recurrent stroke. According to WHO (2013), about 300 risk factors for stroke have been described, but only those that occur with high frequency in different populations, significantly influence the development of the pathological condition and reduce morbidity during their prevention are considered significant. The combined influence of several risk factors increases the likelihood of stroke (according to WHO 2013, if 1-2 factors are present, the risk of stroke is 6%, 3 factors or more – 19%).
