Abstract

Introduction: Previous studies showed that Ankle Brachial Index (ABI) score less than 0.9 increases probability of ischemic heart disease up to 2 times, risk of TIAI stroke to quadruple, and asymptomatic carotid and popliteal artery stenosis to one and half fold. ABI <0.9 is related with diffuse atherosclerosis. The aim of this study was to review ABI findings in patients with cerebral artery disease. Material and Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study was done on 98 patients with thrombotic cerebrovascular accident in Yazd Shahid Sadughi Hospital, between February 2001 and February 2002. A questionnaire including demographic, clinical, and paraclinical data was completed and results were analyzed using descriptive statistics and frequency distribution tables. Results: Forty four percent of the patients were men. Mean age was 73/1±1/5. ABI<0.9 was seen in 15% of the cases. In patients older than 65 years old ABI<0.9 frequency rate-was-12.5% AND in patients younger that 65 year old it was 3.1%. There was no significant difference between ABI<0.9 and history of diabetes mellitus, hypertension, smoking, and ischemic heart disease. ABI<0.9 was prominently seen in patients with hyperlipidemia(P<0.05). Conclusion: ABI<0.9 was seen in older ages, hypertensive, smoker, and CAD patients more than the others (P>0.07). Because of lack of samples in the present study, authors suggest a study with a larger sample group.
