Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate oriental medicine pattern identification in patients with stroke on the basis of plasma fibrinogen levels and platelet counts. 555 patients diagnosed with stroke between November 2006 and February 2010 were divided in several ways according to the plasma fibrinogen levels and platelet counts on admission. And comparative analysis of the distribution ratio of oriental medicine pattern identification was done between the groups. The mean value of the plasma fibrinogen levels of whole population was 449.18 mg/dL, and it was higher than normal range. The mean value of the platelet counts of whole population was 244.29 /mL, and it was lower but in normal range. Oriental medicine pattern identifications were not characteristic between groups divided according to the serum levels of fibrinogen and platelet counts. In this study, there was not significant correlation between Oriental medicine pattern identifications and the thrombotic factor like plasma fibrinogen levels and platelet counts. This study could be the steppingstone for the next study to develope the objective indicator for the Oriental medicine pattern identifications.
