(Heidenreich et al.‚ 2011). Clinical types and subtypes of stroke Stroke can be broadly classified in two major clinical types: hemorrhagic stroke (bleedings) and ischemic strokes (Clots). Ischemic strokes are sometimes also denoted ‘cerebral infarctions’ and are caused by either cerebral thrombosis or embolism and account for 50-85% of all strokes worldwide. Hemorrhagic strokes are caused by subarachnoid hemorrhage or intracerebral hemorrhage and account for 1-7% and 7-27% respectively of all strokes

Heart attack (acute myocardial infarction): A heart attack occurs when blood flow to the arteries that supply the heart (coronary arteries) becomes blocked. With decreased blood flow‚ the muscle of the heart does not receive enough oxygen. This can cause damage‚ deterioration‚ and

Databases have become an essential part of contemporary society. Harvey‚ Rowan‚ Harrison‚ and Black (2010) stated that databases consists of collections of data in which each record is stored in a certain format‚ allowing for sorting and organization of such data to generate information and knowledge. Therefore‚ in order to capture information and identify patients at risk for developing atrial fibrillation (AFib) after open heart surgery a database plan will need to be developed. The aim of developing

The cardiac electrical activity is produced and controlled by the Sinoatrial (SA) node in the right atrium and the Atrioventricular (AV) node in the interatrial septum. The electrical signals move through the cardiac conduction system fibres causing the atria and ventricles to contract and relax regularly between 60-100 bpm [1].when those electrical signals are interrupted as a result of a damage in the conduction system‚ the heart rate would become irregular or would either increase resulting in
