Abstract:
Introduction: Stroke is the leading cause of death and disability amongst South Africans older than 60 years. The majority of stroke patients in South Africa are managed in general medical wards where little is known about the quality and cost of care. The aim of this study was to determine the cost of stroke care and to identify factors associated with increased expense , as well as to evaluate the quality of stroke care in general medical wards in order to identify areas where quality of care could be improved. Methods: We conducted a retrospective folder review of all acute stroke

This is particularly germane in matters to do with possible congenital defects within the prenatal realm for the ethnic Pakistani, and predominantly Muslim, side of this encounter.
