Mean age of this study was 56.33 Yrs ± 2 SD (Incidence of stroke in young individual is significantly less than older individual). Hypertension was significant risk factor (p<0.005) and obesity was non significant risk factor (p>0.005). The correlation between the ESS and on functionally outcome was significant (p<0.005).
