  • A stroke, sometimes called a "brain attack" or "cardiovascular accident" (CVA) occurs when there is a problem delivering oxygen-rich blood to the brain. When something interrupts the blood, brain tissue dies. Stroke is a medical emergency. It can cause permanent brain damage or even death if not promptly recognized and treated. It is the third leading cause of death and adult disability in the United States and industrialized Europe. Of every 5 deaths from stroke, 2 occur in men and 3 in women.

However, a minor stroke may have no lasting symptoms. High blood pressure is a contributing factor in the risk of stroke. Early symptoms of a stroke include confusion, aphasia, and light headedness. Persons exhibiting these symptoms should be receive immediate medical treatment.

  • A stroke is an immediate life threatening condition and is invariably fatal if untreated. Patients who survive a stroke may nevertheless be stricken by localized brain damage, which can affect the ability to walk or speak, although cognitive abilities may remain intact. However, a minor stroke may have no lasting symptoms. The usual treatment for a stroke is blood thinners to break up any clots that may be occluding blood flow to the brain. Although in the past any obvious symptoms of a stroke inevitably led to brain damage, modern treatment applied in a timely fashion can usually prevent this from happening. High blood pressure is a contributing factor in the risk of stroke. Early symptoms of a stroke include confusion, aphasia, and light headedness. Persons exhibiting these symptoms should be receive immediate medical treatment.
