Stroke
Type Of Strokes
An ischemic stroke happens when the blood vessel is prevented and it is the most prevalent type of stroke. A hemorrhagic stroke generally occurs when a blood vessel breaks. This type of stroke is less common.
Ischemic Stroke
An ischemic stroke occurs when a blood vessel becomes blocked, making it the most common form of stroke.
Hemorrhagic Stroke
A hemorrhagic stroke, which is less frequent, happens when a blood vessel ruptures.
What Happens To The Brain Cells When A Stroke Happens?
During a stroke, blood flow to the brain is interrupted, and since the brain relies on a constant supply of oxygen to function, this disruption can have devastating effects. Without oxygen, the cells in the affected region of the brain, which were previously receiving oxygenated blood, begin to deteriorate and die. This process can occur within minutes and may extend over several hours after the stroke begins. As these cells perish, they release harmful chemicals that exacerbate the situation, causing even more surrounding brain cells to die. This chain reaction is why swift medical intervention is critical in the treatment of ischemic stroke. The window of opportunity for effective treatment is narrow, and timely care can prevent extensive damage and improve the chances of recovery.

Stroke Prevention
80% of strokes can be restricted by discussing modifiable risk factors. When an individual has a stroke, their risk of having another stroke is enhanced. When a person is treated for a stroke, vaccinations and suggestions are given to limit further strokes.
