Aim: To study serum electrolyte levels in cerebrovascular accidents (cerebral infarct and cerebral haemorrhage) Material and Methods: In this retrospective case control study, we compared serum electrolyte results of 70 diagnosed patients of cerebrovascular accidents (cerebral infarct and cerebral haemorrhage) within 24 hours of admission from the onset of the event with the 70 age and sex matched controls. Statistical analysis: Statistical analysis was done by z test using SPSS 16 which showed statistically significant difference in serum sodium levels while serum potassium levels showed no significant difference. Conclusion: Electrolytes disturbance may contribute to the prognosis of cerebrovascular accidents and early correction of this electrolyte imbalance can lead to better prognosis and may avoid complications.Keywords

Aim: 1) To compare serum electrolyte levels (sodium and potassium levels) in cerebral Infarction and cerebral hemorrhage. 2) To compare serum electrolytes in thalamic and other intracranial hemorrhages. Material and Methods: In this retrospective type of study, we compared serum electrolyte levels of 70 patients, 45 diagnosed as cerebral infarction with the 25 patients, diagnosed as cerebral hemorrhage. The sample for electrolyte analysis was collected within first 24 hrs of onset of the event. Result: Statistical analysis was done by Z test and independent t test using SPSS 16 which showed statistically no significant difference in serum electrolyte levels in both groups there was also no statistical difference in serum electrolyte levels in thalamic hemorrhages compared to other intracranial hemorrhages. Conclusion: Electrolyte imbalance is common in cerebrovascular accidents and needs to be intervene as early as possible irrespective of the type of cerebral insult. Correction of electrolytes imbalance can help in better prognosis of the patient and may avoid complications.Keywords
