Introduction
Background of the study:
Every year, 17.1 million lives are taken away due to
tobacco use, an unhealthy diet, and physical inactivity,
factors which all lead to cardiovascular diseases, the
worlds largest killer. Cardiovascular diseases affect all
ages and gender; however, it is more perceptible in low and
middle income countries, where more than 80% of
cardiovascular related deaths occur. According to the latest
WHO data published in April 2011 Stroke Deaths in
Philippines reached 40,245 or 9.55% of total deaths. The age
adjusted Death Rate is 82.77 per 100,000 of population ranks
Philippines #106 in the world.
The researcher chose Cerebrovascular disease or stroke
as a topic for a case study in acute adult diseases for the
reason that stroke is a national research priority and there
is still minimal systematic investigation of stroke nursing,
especially practice. The researcher believes that through
studying the whole course of illness, insights and new
information can be obtained in dealing with cerebrovascular
disease which could help students, nurses and any researcher
who would endeavour in the study of cerebrovascular disease.
