dc.description.abstract | Background: The studies on creatine kinase-myocardial band (CK-MB),
troponin T, haemoglobin and electrolyte level with acute stroke attack are
relatively scarce.
Objective: To investigate about association between CK-MB, troponin T,
haemoglobin and electrolyte with acute stroke attack and to investigate the
difference means level of CK-MB, troponin T, haemoglobin and electrolyte
with acute stroke attack.
Methods : This was a cross-sectional study with a total number of 30
consecutive sampling non random selected, clinically and computed
tomography (CT) scan proven acute stroke patients were studied at Haji
Adam Malik General Hospital. All participants, that had fulfilled inclusion
criteria and didn't have exclusion criteria, were asked to complete
questionnaire about demographic data and then the blood was withdrawn
to measure CK-MB, troponin T, haemoglobin, and electrolyte level.
Demographic data would be analyzed using descriptive statistics. To
analize association between CK-MB, troponin T, haemoglobin and
electrolyte with stroke attack, this study would use Chi Square test. A p-
value < 0,05 was considered statistically significant.
Results : Subjects with acute stroke did not differ in terms of demographic
data. There was no association between CK-MB (p=0,204), troponin T
(p=0,273), hemoglobin (p>0,05) and electrolyte (p>0.05) level with acute
stroke attack. There was no differences between the mean levels of CK-
MB, troponin T, haemoglobin and electrolyte in acute stroke attack
(p>0,05)
Conclusion :. There was no association between CK-MB, troponin t,
haemoglobin and electrolyte level with acute stroke attack. | en_US |
