Se encontr贸 que se dispensarizaron en el 100 % de los fallecidos la hipertensi贸n arterial, la cardiopat铆a isqu茅mica, la obesidad y la hiperlipidemia. El 72,4 % (12 fallecidos) recibi贸 entre 1 y 3 controles en consultas.

Se recomienda realizar un mayor n煤mero de controles en la atenci贸n primaria a los pacientes con enfermedad cerebrovascular sobre todo cuando en la dispensarizaci贸n se encuentra la asociaci贸n hipertensi贸n arterial, h谩bito de fumar y mayores de 65 a帽os.<br>A retrospective descriptive study was conducted to evaluate the health actions taken by the family physician in connection with those patients that suffered from cerebrovascular disease and died due to this cause in the "Carlos Verdugo" health area, Matanzas, during 1994 and 1995. 50 dead patients were studied through doctor relative interviews. The following data were obtained: age, sex, personal pathological history; including chronic diseases and risk factors, classification; which made possible to know the number of controls made during the last 12 months before death at the physician office or through field visits and comprehensive visits, and the fulfilment of treatment. 100 % of the dead patients were classified into arterial hypertension, ischaemic heart disease, obesity and hyperlipidaemia. 72.4 % (12 deceased patients) received between I and 3 controls at the physician's office. 79.3 % (16 dead patients) were controlled between 1 and 3 times by field visits, whereas 100 % were controlled from 1 to 3 occassions in comprehensive visits to the family. It was concluted that the fulfilment of the treatment indicated for the cerebrovascular disease, the risk factors and the chronic diseases was not satisfactory in the studied group. It is recommended to increase the number of controls at the primary care level among those patients with cerebrovascular disease, mainly when within the classification there is an association between hypertension and smoking habit in patients over 65

El 80 % (24 ni帽os) recibi贸 tratamiento en monoterapia y 6 (20 %) politerapia. La fenito铆na correlacion贸 significativamente (p < 0,005) con los resultados escolares M. Existe relaci贸n de los niveles elevados de droga en sangre con los peores resultados acad茅micos.<br>With the aim of knowing the influence of antiepileptic drug therapy on learning outcomes, 30 children with partial epileptic crisis that go to normal primary schools, were studied. These data were collected in family interviews: antiepileptic drug therapy used, dose in blood, and academic outcomes in the last school course correlated with the variables studied with the multiple correlation test. Twenty four children (80 %) received monotherapy treatment, and six (20 %) received politherapy. Phenytoin significantly correlated (p < 0.005) with M school outcomes. There is a relation of the increased drug levels in blood with the worst academic results
