Abstract

Background: Stroke is one of the leading causes of motarlity worldwide. The determination of mortality rates and factors associated with to mortality after acute ischemic stroke is important to improve the treatment of patients. Objectives: Determine the cumulative mortality rate at 1 year and factors independently associated with to mortality after acute ischemic stroke. Methods: Prospective, observational cohort study. Using Kaplan-Meier estimates and Cox regression models to determine cumulative mortality rate and factors independently associated with to mortality after acute ischemic stroke. Results: In 2 years, we collected 520 patients with acute ischemic stroke and followed up for 1 year. The cumulative mortality rate at 1 year was 19.8%. Factors  independently associated with mortality include older age, marital status, atrial fibrillation, blood glucose on admission, pneumonia, and cardioembolism. Conclusions: The cumulative mortality rate at 1 year was 19.8%. Factors independently associated with mortality were older age, marital status, atrial fibrillation, blood glucose on admission, pneumonia, and cardioembolism.
