Knowledge regarding Stroke about the management of Stroke patients in the Rehabilitation medical Center and Arthritis\ Al-Sadr Chantal in Baghdad city

Abstract

Background: Stroke or cerebrovascular accident, or stroke, is when the blood flow and nutrition to a part of the brain is reduced, which leads to the death of cells. There are two main types of stroke: ischemic stroke, which is due to lack of blood flow, and hemorrhagic stroke, which is due to cerebral hemorrhage. This causes part of the brain to not function properly. Signs and symptoms of a stroke may include inability to move or feel a limb, problems understanding or speaking, spinning, and not being able to see one side of the visual field. Symptoms often appear within a short time of a stroke. If symptoms persist for less than an hour or two, the condition is defined as a transient ischemic attack. A hemorrhagic stroke may be accompanied by a severe headache. Stroke symptoms may be permanent and long-term complications may include pneumonia or loss of bladder control. The main risk factor for stroke is high blood pressure. Other risk factors include smoking, obesity, high cholesterol, diabetes mellitus, previous TIA, atrial fibrillation and others. An ischemic stroke results from a blockage in a blood vessel, while a hemorrhagic stroke results from bleeding either directly into the brain or into the space surrounding the brain. Bleeding may occur as a result of cerebral aneurysms. Diagnosis is usually made using medical imaging such as computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging, as well as a clinical examination. Other tests, such as electrocardiograms and blood tests, are done to estimate risk factors and rule out other possible causes. Hypoglycemia may cause similar symptoms.
Aim of the study: to assessment Knowledge regarding Stroke about the management of Stroke patients in the Rehabilitation
Methodology: the assessment method was applied in a descriptive study. Through the calculations of a deliberate sample of (420) subjects to be chosen Al-Sadr Chantal Center and Arthritis in Baghdad Survey data were gathered, and descriptive and inferential statistical methods were used to analyze them..
