dc.description.abstractOBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate mortality-related factors in ischemic stroke patients 80 years of age and older. MATERIAL and METHODS: We reviewed all ischemic stroke patients admitted to our clinic between January 2010 and January 2012. The patients' database information was retrospectively analyzed. One hundred and ten patients aged older than 80 years with ischemic stroke were included in the study. The patients were divided into two groups based on survival. Age, gender, recurrent stroke, risk factors, clinical syndrome, etiology, radiographic localization, duration of hospitalization, and presence of systemic complications were accepted as mortality-related prognostic factors. The groups were compared according to these prognostic factors. RESULTS: In the clinical follow-up, 58 (52.7%) patients died; 65.5% died of neurological causes, and 31% died of systemic complications. No significant differences existed between the two groups in age, gender, risk factors, recurrent stroke, or etiology. The frequency of total anterior circulation infarct syndrome was much higher in deceased than living patients (50% and 36.5% respectively;p<0.05). Deceased patients had a statistically significantly higher incidence of total MCA infarct and systemic complications than did living patients (p<0.05). CONCLUSION: To date, many variables that affect the early and late prognosis in stroke patients have been reported. Many of these factors cannot be changed, such as oldest age. It is important to determine the changeable and non-changeable factors related to disability and death in the oldest age groups. Starting appropriate treatment and care initiatives as soon as possible is also very necessary in the oldest stroke patients.en_US
