[Characteristics of the fatal outcome in acute cerebrovascular disorders].
Recent decades have seen a steady growth of the mortality rate related to cerebrovascular disorders. Age-matched mortality rates from this pathology are higher among men as compared to women. The main complications leading to death of patients with cerebrovascular disorders are oedema and dislocation of the brain (50.0%) and pneumonia (34.1%). The system of medical provision to patients with this pathology needs further improvement. Thus, only 26.5% of the patients who died of acute impairment of the cerebral blood circulation had been examined by neuropathologists at the polyclinic. The index of erroneous diagnosis (the number of erroneous diagnoses per 100 correct ones) is 38 at the prehospital and 11.6 at the inpatient stage.
