ABSTRACT
Objectives:
This study was performed to evaluate the relationships among blood-stasis, cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) and cardiovascular risk.

Methods :
We obtained general characteristics, blood-stasis score and CAVI from 150 stroke patients. Blood-stasis score was evaluated by blood-stasis criteria. Cardiovascular risk (the following, Stuart's risk score) was evaluated by Stuart's risk scoring scale. We divided subjects into a blood-stasis group and a non blood-stasis group by blood-stasis scores, high CAVI and normal CAVI groupsby CAVI. We compared the general characteristics, CAVI (excluded from comparison between high CAVI group and normal CAVI group), Stuart's risk score and blood-stasis score (excluded from comparison between blood-stasis group and non blood-stasis group) between each pair of groups. Pearson correlation analysis was applied to examine the relationship between blood stasis score and CAVI, blood stasis score and Stuart's risk score, CAVI and Stuart's risk score.

Results:
The blood-stasis group had significantly higher CAVI and Stuart's risk scores than the non blood stasis group. The high CAVI group had significantly higher blood-stasis score and Stuart's risk score than the normalCAVI group. In correlation analysis, there were significant positive relationship between blood stasis score and Stuart's risk score, CAVI and Stuart's risk score, and blood stasis score and CAVI.

Conclusions:
This study suggeststhat there is a significant relationship among blood stasis,CAVI and cardiovascular risk.
Key words: CAVI, blood-stasis, cardiovasular risk, stroke
