Aim: To analyse hematological parameters in Cerebrovascular disease

Study design :A retrospective study

Place of Study: The study was carried out in Saveetha Medical College and Hospital, Tamil Nadu, India.

Methodology: This is a retrospective study conducted in Saveetha medical college and hospital during the period of December 2020 and May 2021. The study includes 260 cases, of which 130 CVA patients and 130 control group was taken. Haematological parameters were obtained using Sysmex Automated Analyzer XN-1000.

Statistical analysis was done by SPSS software version 23, with descriptive and independent t test. The level of significance was taken as p value<0.05

Results: CVA are due to two main causes, ischaemic (63.84%) and haemorrhagic infarct (36.15%) The age ranges from 47-69 among stroke subjects. The mean age of control(38.80±12.40years) and CVA group(58.177±11.78years). Both ischaemic and haemorrhagic infarcts are more common among male. On haematological parameters study, analysis showed platelet was increased in CVA than control group. RBC, PCV, MCV, MCHC, TC, neutrophil, lymphocyte, eosinophil, basophil are significant. Haemoglobin, MCH, RDW and monocyte revealed no significance.

Conclusion: In this study, haematological parameters of ischemic CVA patients were greatly altered. The presence of persistently altered status of haematological parameters cerebral ischemic event indicate that these parameters can be considered a simple inflammatory indicator during the development of ischemic damage.
