Abstract

Use of serum markers has been a established practice in medicine. CRP levels have been known to provide a estimate of inflammation.

The study was a prospective case control format and utilized a subject pool of 50 subjects as case and control each. The study observed a significantly elevated level of CRP in cases with an acute ischaemic stroke. The study concluded that use of CRP can be a an effective modality in clinical practice  in managing such cases.
