Title: Learn from the experts about “Stroke”

by Dr. Pradumna Singh and Dr. Nandakumar Vittal

Dr. Nandakumar Vittal and Dr. Pradumna Singh
Stroke occurs due to a decrease in oxygen to the brain. A bleed or blockage in the brain’s blood supply can cause it. Immediate emergency treatment may help prevent life-threatening consequences. Stroke is the fifth leading cause of deathTrusted Source in the United States. In fact, nearly 800,000 people have a stroke each year. That equates to around one person every 40 seconds.
There are three main types of sources of stroke:

Ischemic stroke: This is the most common type of stroke, making up 87% of all cases. A blood clot prevents blood and oxygen from reaching an area of the brain.
Hemorrhagic stroke: This occurs when a blood vessel ruptures. These are usually the result of aneurysms or arteriovenous malformations (AVMs)Trusted Source.
Transient ischemic attack (TIA) occurs when blood flow to a part of the brain is inadequate for a brief period. Normal blood flow resumes after a short amount of time, and the symptoms resolve without treatment. Some people call this a ministroke.

A stroke can be fatal. According to the American Heart Association (AHA), the age-adjusted mortality rate for 2017 was 37.6 in every 100,000 trusted Source stroke diagnoses.
