Vascular Accident (CVA) is the neurological event that most affects society in recent years, causing disabilities in the population and death. It can be defined as a set of neurological disorders causing similar symptoms, but with different etiologies. Currently, Lucy Montoro Rehabilitation Center of São José dos Campos is a reference in the treatment of patients neurologically squealed. Thus, the aim of this study was to make an epidemiological survey of the profile of patients affected by CVA in this region and seen at this center. Methods: The records of patients received in this center between September 2011 and December 2014 were used during this research. Patients with hemiplegia caused by other etiologies were not analyzed. Results: Of the 230 valid records for the study, 60% were men and the socio-demographic profile showed that of these, 76% were older than 50 years. Considering the type of event, ischemic stroke was the most prevalent in our sample. It was found the same involvement of body parts affected, right and left 46% and 8% classified into double hemiparesis, since the prevailing motor pattern of the sample was paresis 87%. Conclusion: It was found that the population served by Lucy Montoro Rehabilitation Center of SJC consists most of men above 50 years of age affected by ischemic stroke (right or left) and prevalent paretic motor pattern.
