Abstract:

Purpose: Injection is a sudden, initial, focal or global loss of brain function and is the most common cause of mortality and morbidity after adult age cancers and heart disease. Although it has been that the decrease values in the average volume of thrombocytes (MPV) may be an independent risk factor for the severity and forecast, the results of previous studies are incoherent. The aim of this study is to determine the MPV values that reflect the activity and function of thrombocytes in ischemic stroke patients and to observe its effect on clinical results. Method: Sixteen two acute ischemic injury patients were taken to study. Clinical information, MPV, thrombocytes, white blood cells (WBC) and neutrophils, C-reactive protein (CRP) and troponin-T levels were obtained. Results: The average age was 72.4±12.6. At the end of the study, 28 patients were deported and 34 patients were exited. The frequency of bilateral infection was higher in patients who died (p=0,005). Also, the number of thrombocytes found significantly high (p=0,016) in the dismissed patients. In the first application, the MPV values were 10,59±1,01 fL in patients with discharge and 11,29±1,12 fL in patients with death (p=0,029). At the end of the study, the MPV values in the group of patients who died were measured at 11.46±1.28 fL, and at 10.47±0.74 fL (p<0,001). The WBC and neutrophil numbers, troponin-T and CRP values showed no significant differences between the dead and dispersed patients (p>0,05). Result: Our study has shown that the levels of MPV and thrombocytes may be associated with mortality in acute ischemic injury patients and can be used as prognostic indicators.
