From two prospective stroke studies during the period 1963-1968 and 1978-1982 at Bombay, using identical methodologies, it is observed that there is a significant drop in case fatality rate (32-12%) thereby resulting in a higher survival (68-88%) but with residual disability. Thus, these changing trends have posed a major social challenge in occupational rehabilitation and in solving the needs for stroke survivors, particularly in the younger age-groups.
在1963年至1968年以及1978年至1982年期间于孟买进行的两项前瞻性中风研究中,采用相同的方法观察到,病死率显著下降(从32%降至12%),从而使生存率提高(从68%提高到88%),但存在残留残疾。因此,这些变化趋势给职业康复以及满足中风幸存者的需求带来了重大社会挑战,尤其是在较年轻的年龄组中。
