VALIDATION OF O B FAMILONI ECG ABNORMALITIES IN ISCHAEMIC STROKE CASES

Introduction: stroke or cerebrovascular Accident according to WHO is focal or global neurological deficit of vascular origin lasting more than twenty-four hours or resulting in death before twenty-four hours. Stroke is a health condition with global impact, causing significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. Many economies of the world commit to combating this problem. Worldwide and especially in subsaharan Africa, the victims are mainly in the productive age ranges, leading to huge economic loss. Stroke is currently the second leading cause of death worldwide after Ischaemic heart disease. Most strokes are preceded by modifiable risk factors. Controlling these risk factors would reduce the occurrence, morbidity and mortality of stroke. Objectives: To see if difference exist between the ECG of ischemic stroke patients in University of Benin teaching hospital and Familoni study in ischaemic stroke patients in Ogun state university teaching hospital, Nigeria. Method: This was a cross sectional analytical study carried out in UBTH, Benin between January 2010 and 2013. The electrocardiographic abnormalities of 60 admitted ischaemic stroke patients in this study was compared with the electrocardiographic abnormalities of 64 ischaemic stroke patients in the Familoni study. The data was analyzed using SPSS 21 software. A p – value of < 0.05 was considered significant Results: The most common ECG abnormality among both group of stroke patients was ischaemic changes (53.3% vs 54.7%) and arrhythmias (33.3% vs 34.4%) respectively without statistically significant difference, p >0.05. However, the QT interval prolongation was significantly less common in this study (4.7% vs 43.5%, p<0.05). Conclusion: This study largely found similar values with Familoni study, more so that both centers are in southern Nigeria. The variation in the QT interval seen in both studies should be further elucidated.
