Abstract

Objectives : To compare and see the differences between systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) blood pressure in ischemic and hemorrhagic patients. Methods : We conducted research using case control method in ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke patients confirmed by brain ct scan and measured the blood pressure at the onset within 72 hours. Results : Systolic and diastolic blood pressure had been measured in 36 stroke patients, which is 25 patients diagnosed ischemic stroke (69.4%), whereas 11 patients diagnosed hemorrhagic stroke (30,6%). Mean SBP in ischemic stroke patients was 179.6 ± 26.22 mmHg with median was 180 (min-max: 130–240) mmHg compare with hemorrhagic stroke mean SBP was 201.81 ± 25.62 mmHg with median was 210 (160–240) mmHg (p value 0.029). Mean DBP in ischemic stroke patients was 116.8 ± 15.74 mmHg with median was 120 (90–160) mmHg versus mean DBP in hemorrhagic stroke 135.45 ± 28.06 mmHg with median was 130 (100–180) mmHg (p value 0.069). Conclusion : There is different statistically value systolic blood pressure between ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic patients. Whereas there is no statistically significant diastolic blood pressure between two groups.
