Abstract

Objective: To find out the clinical, paraclinical and treatment results of mild acute cerebral infarction at the Yên Bái Province hospital. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study. The study subjects were patients with confirmed diagnosis of acute cerebral infarction within 24 hours of onset with NIHSS score ≤ 4, over 18 years old, treated at Yên Bái Province hospital since 1/ 2024 to 8/2024, follow-up clinical outcomes after 3 months of discharge. Results: The total number of study subjects was 33 patients, in which the male/female ratio = 1,35/1. Mean age: 66.52±12.97, the age group over 45 years old accounted for the largest rate 90,9%, the age group under 45 years old accounted for the lowest rate 9.1%. The number of patients hospitalized after onset 6 hours - 24 hours after onset accounted for the highest rate of 45,5%. Among the risk factors, the most common were hypertension and lipid metabolism disorders, respectively 90,9% and 84,8%, diabetes 15,2% and old cerebral stroke 21,2%. Classification according to TOAST, the cause of small vessel disease accounted for the highest rate of 63,6%, embolism from the heart accounted for 12,1%. At the time of discharge after 3 months of discharge, patients with good recovery had mRS score of 0 -1, accounting for 87,9%. Patients with pre-medical history stroke and large artery stenosis are the prognostic factors for risk of severely progression and poorly neurologic outcome. Conclusion: The study showed the distinct clinical characteristics in the group of patients with mild cerebral infarction at the Yên Bái Province hospital with a high recovery rate, with small vascular etiology accounting for the majority. Patients with pre-medical history stroke and large artery stenosis are the prognostic factors for risk of severely progression and poorly neurologic outcome.
