Young generation is becoming soft target of paralytic attack..!!
'Tension' and 'life style' is a big causal factor..!!

survey report/dainik bhaskar/27.8.2013

Career tension, less sleep, high blood pressure, blood sugar, increasing cholesterol level, wine, cigarette....are the reasons behind this fast emerging ailment..!!
not only city-dwellers, even village youths are the sufferers..!!


This analysis is based on phone calls received and patients admitted then after by *108 Sanjeevani Express mobile unit services, from all over the Chhattisgarh state of India.


Age group (in years)           April 2013             May 2013            June 2013
                                          (No. of patients)    (No. of patients)   (No. of patients)

15-25                                          15                         15                       14
26-35                                          20                         16                       17
Out of all these numbers of patients, 75% are brain hemorrhage cases and 16% is epilepsy cases.



Classification of affected:
Self employed    46 %
Daily wages       17 %

In earlier times, these stroke cases were only common to the age 60, now the age factor has come to the half. Tension, high blood pressure, sugar, cholesterol, smoking and vine are the major factor for these cases in youth. (Dr.Chandra Mohan Singh, Neuro physician, Ambedkar Hospital, Raipur, Chhattisgarh)
