This study aimed to investigate the general characteristics of patients with acute cerebral infarction, the characteristics of its treatment and its correlation with stroke rating scale and to analyze the factors that affect patient's quality of life. The subject of this study was 576 patients who survived more than a year after they were diagnosed with cerebral infarction that occurred within 7 days and discharged from a study center. Their quality of life was investigated through phone interview. The average age of subjects was 65.8±12.4 years old and male subjects took up 62% among all subjects. The mean of quality of life showed 0.77±0.29. There was statistically significant difference in factors such as gender, age, hypertension, atrial fibrillation, stroke history and smoking. The result of multiple regression analysis showed the quality of life was lower in females than in males and it was significantly low in older subjects or those with stroke history. Also high stroke scale was related to significantly low quality of life. As such, hospitalized patients due to stroke should receive appropriate intervention during the hospitalization and after their discharge and the development of program is required to prevent relapse.
