Objectives: The aims of this study were to investigate the direct medical cost of patients with acute ischemic stroke at Taipei Municipal Jen-Ai Hospital and

to compare the findings with those of two other medical centers in Taiwan in order to find ways of reducing costs. Method: FromJanuary 1, 2003 to December 31,

2003 the demographic data of 115 patients admitted to Taipei Municipal Jen-Ai Hospital with acute ischemic stroke were collected to analyze the direct medical costs and the factors affecting the costs. Results: The mean age of the patients was 70.4 years with male predominance (55.5%). Only 20% of the patients arrived at the hospital within 3 hours after onset of symptoms. Hypertension (74.4%) and previous stroke (35.7%) were the most common causes of the patients with risk factors. The average severity of stroke at admission was 6.9±7. 3 based on National Institute of Health and Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score. The percentage of small artery

atherothrombotic type (43.5%) was more than that of large artery atherothrombotic type (39.1%) according to the Trial of Org 10172 in Acute Stroke Treatment. (TOAST) classification. Cardiac embolization (8.7%) and undetermined cause of stroke (8.7%) were the other types of acute ischemic stroke. The average direct medical cost for each patient was NT$ 50,108 ($1 US   32 NT$), which was the equivalent to an average daily cost NT $ 4,041 per patient. Only stroke severity and length of stay (LOS) affected the cost of acute ischemic stroke. Conclusion: The cost of patients with acute ischemic stroke at Taipei Municipal Jen-Ai Hospital was lower than that of other medical centers in Taiwan. We concluded that shortening the LOS was the only way to reduce the costs. (Full text in Chinese)
