About 80% of all first ever lifetime strokes are ischemic, 10% are due to primary intracerebral haemorrhage, about 5% are due to subarachanoid haemorrhage and in the remainder there is an uncertainty. After coronary heart disease and all cancers, stroke is the common cause of death in the world causing about 4 million deaths, three quarter of them in developing countries. Personal history regarding dietary habits, smoking, alcohol consumption and tobacco chewing were noted. NIH Stroke Scale was assessed in all patients to assess the neurological disability and its prognosis. Detailed neurological examination was done based on proforma. Among 71 patients 61 patients are alive with significant improvement and 10 patients are expired. Among 10 patients who died, 6 patients are in the age group of more than 60 years and 4 patients are in the age group of 40-60 years. Maximum mortality was seen in the age group of more than 60 years. And no deaths are seen in the age group of less than 40 years.
