Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- Worldwide, the incidence of ischemic stroke is estimated to be 68 percent.[1]
- Stroke is the third leading cause of death in the Western world, after heart disease and cancer, and causes 10% of deaths worldwide.[2]
- The incidence of stroke increases exponentially from 30 years of age, and etiology varies by age.[3]
Age
According to National Health Interview survey data, there is increased no of hospitalizations in patients aged 5-44 years for ischemic stroke.
- 95% of strokes occur in people age 45 and older; two-thirds of strokes occur in those over the age of 65.[4]
- A person's risk of dying if he or she does have a stroke also increases with age.
- However, stroke can occur at any age, including in fetuses.
- Stroke is the second leading killer of people under 20 yrs age who suffer from sickle-cell anemia.
Gender
- Men are 1.25 times more likely to suffer cerebral vascular accidents than women.
- However, 60% of deaths from stroke occur in women: Since women usually live longer, they are usually older when they suffer from strokes and are more often killed).[4]
- Some risk factors for stroke apply only to women
- Primary among these are pregnancy, childbirth, menopause and the treatment thereof (HRT).
Stroke in USA
- Stroke is a leading cause of serious long-term disability
- In USA, the incidence and mortality rates of stroke has significantly decreased compared to previous years.
- From year 2003 to 2013, the mortality rates due to stroke declined by 18.5%.[5]
- In 2013, stroke became the fifth leading cause of death.
- The case fatality rate of stroke is estimated to be 41.7 deaths per 100, 000 population[5]
- The incidence of new (610, 000) or recurrent stroke (185, 000) is estimated to be 795000 people annually or 250 cases per 100, 000.[5]
- It is estimated that one incidence of stroke happens every 4 sec with death occurs every 4 min.[5]
- About 87% of all strokes are ischemic strokes[6]
- Stroke costs the United States an estimated $34 billion each year[6]
Worldwide
- According to WHO, the incidence of stroke is estimated to be 15 million people annually, worldwide.[7].
- Out of these, 5 million die and 5 million are left permanently disabled.[7].
