Abstract: Objective: 1) To investigate the unfavourable outcome predictors of posterior circulation stroke. 2) To compare the PC-ASPECTS with respect to functional outcome prediction using Modified Rankin Scale and NIHSS (National institute of health stroke scale) 3) To identify the optimal cut-off point for the PC-ASPECTS for predicting favourable and unfavourable functional outcomes. Sample Size: Favourable functional outcome prediction in posterior circulation acute ischemic stroke has been observed in 64% from the previous study.

Keywords: PC-Aspects, CT-Brain, Modified Rankin Scale, NIHSS Score and Stroke
