Kielbergerová, Lenka ; Rohan, Vladimír (advisor) ; Holečková, Irena (referee) ; Petrák, Ondřej (referee)
Stroke is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in the developed world. In the theoretical part of the thesis, we try to summarize the overall knowledge of stroke, the definitions and the general approach to the diagnosis and treatment, with a focus on ischemic stroke. Furthermore, the issue of acute phase treatment and secondary preventive treatment of ischemic stroke is reviewed and the modalities of the subsequent neurological deficit evaluation, the occurrence of mood disorders and the assessment of the quality of life of individuals after stroke are discussed. Our research aimed to assess the perspective of ischemic stroke patients admitted to the hospital. The first part is focusing on the mortality of patients with ischemic stroke in the period 2003-2019 in the Westbohemian region and its relation to secondary prevention. The second part aims to identify the main clinical and psychosocial factors affecting the quality of life of chronic stable post-stroke patients after their first in-life episode of stroke. The relation of poor quality of life indicators, mortality and conventional cardiovascular risk factors is prospectively assessed. The mortality of patients after first-in-life ischemic stroke hospitalization the years 2003- 2019 is higher compared to worldwide trends. In the...
