00:00CBD is number two, accounting for 12.9% of all deaths.

00:06However, in 2015, it went down to third.

00:11It went down to third, not because the numbers decreased.

00:15In fact, the numbers increased, and it's because of the rise of cancer in our country.

00:21So number one is systemic heart disease, number two is cancer.

00:24Third now is CBD or cerebrovascular disease.

00:28It's from 2015 up to 2023.

00:34And if you look at the data, medically attended,

00:38only about 50 to 60% of all stroke cases died with medical attendance,

00:45and about 28 to 36% died without medical attendance,

00:50especially in geographically isolated areas.

00:54Or those poor people with no means of, or financial means to go to the hospital.

01:02If I populated the deaths from stroke in several regions,

01:07and the top region includes Bicol.

01:10So there's 82 deaths per 100,000 population,

01:16and it has likely decreased to 78 in 2021.

01:20Next, we have Ilocos and Davao.

01:22Both have 18 deaths per 100,000 population.

01:27And if you look at Ilocos, there's even a rise in death in 2020.

01:3182 deaths per 100,000 population.

01:34While in Davao, it has gone down to 77.

01:38Only Ilocos, at this time, has the highest death from stroke.

01:45This is because of the food baby back then.

01:49So now, I'll discuss the PNA one-stroke database.

01:55This is only a two-year data, but we have completed the three data,

02:01and it will be published soon.

02:02So we gathered 6,481 cases from 11 institutions.

02:10So these are the institutions.

02:13These are the accredited neurology training institutions, 11 in one.

02:17So the mean age is January 58.

02:22We have some missing data.

02:24So mostly 56% among males and 44% among females,

02:29but there's a small percentage trans female and trans male.

02:35So first event is 85%.

02:37Recurrence is 10%, mostly from uncontrolled hypertension

02:41and those with AF without any medications.

02:44So as you can see, 33% are ICH,

02:50while skin mixed stroke is only 56%.

02:59Got you.
