Clinical Significance of Measurment of D-Dimer and High Sensitive C-Reactive Protein in Serum for Acute Cerebral Infarction / 中国康复理论与实践

ABSTRACT

@#Objective To explore the relationship of D-Dimer and high sensitive C-reactive protein in serum in acute cerebral infarction. Methods 64 patients with acute cerebral infarction were measured with the D-Dimer and Hs-CRP and compared with that of 50 healthy subjects as the controls. Their scores of National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) were recorded and the correlation with the D-Dimer and Hs-CRP level was analyzed. Results Compared with those in controls, the levels of D-Dimer and Hs-CRP in patients with acute cerebral infarction were significantly higher (P<0.05), and those in patients with large infarction area were significantly higher than those in patients with small infarction area (P<0.01). The levels of D-Dimer and Hs-CRP uncorrelated with the scores of NIHSS.Conclusion The D-Dimer and Hs-CRP level is helpful to assess the acute cerebral infarction.
