Abstract

Introduction: Cerebrovascular stroke is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in adults. Stroke is the third leading cause of death worldwide, following coronary heart disease and all types of cancer. Objective: The study's primary goals were to investigate clinical profiles, risk factors, and the relationship between clinical profiles and neuroimaging in stroke patients. Secondary goals included determining the incidence of stroke in various socioeconomic strata, complications during hospitalisation, and the average length of hospital stay. Methods: This prospective hospital-based study included 50 patients with a provisional clinical diagnosis of fresh stroke who underwent brain neuroimaging (CT/MRI). Patients with other than a stroke as a possible cause were excluded from the study. Imaging findings were evaluated and tabulated before being correlated with the patients' clinical findings
