Stroke is the leading cause of functional damage and death worldwide affecting both patients and their relatives in most regions. The main objective of the study is to check renal function in patient with stroke and to assess the link between the renal function and short–term outcome during their hospital stay. A perspective study was carried out for a period of one year with 137 consented stroke patient’s age>13 diagnosed within 48 hours. The statistical analysis was done using EPI INFO version. Qualitative and Quantitative data was analysed with statistical tests. We found that stroke was found more common in the male and mainly caused due to infarction and intracerebral hemorrhage. Both Diabetes mellitus and hypertension reduced GFR in nearly 50% of the patients with stroke. Mean hospital stay was highest in patients with reduced GFR and increased PCR. Mortality was more in patients with reduced GFR and increased PCR.
