Understanding Stroke and Its Treatment
A stroke is a life-threatening medical emergency that occurs when the blood supply to the brain is disrupted, leading to the death of brain cells. The two primary types of stroke are:
- Ischemic Stroke (caused by a blockage in a blood vessel)
- Haemorrhagic Stroke (caused by bleeding in the brain)
The leading risk factor for stroke is high blood pressure. Symptoms include difficulty walking, slurred speech, loss of comprehension, and paralysis or weakness on one side of the body. If you or someone around you experiences these symptoms, it’s crucial to act fast and seek immediate medical attention. Time is brain—swift action can significantly reduce the risk of long-term damage.
At Aster Mother Hospital, our 24-hour Stroke Clinic provides immediate, comprehensive care, ensuring the best possible treatment and optimal outcomes for stroke patients.
