Frequently Asked Questions

What is a stroke?

A stroke is a medical emergency which occurs when the blood flow to a part of the brain is interrupted, leading to damage or death of brain cells.

What are the symptoms of a stroke?

Common symptoms include sudden weakness on one side of the body, difficulty understanding or speaking, severe headaches, blurred vision, and loss of balance or coordination.

How is a stroke diagnosed?

A stroke is typically diagnosed through a combination of physical examination, medical history review, brain imaging (such as CT scan or MRI), and blood tests.

What are the different types of strokes?

The two major types of strokes are- ischemic stroke (caused by a blocked or narrowed blood vessel) and hemorrhagic stroke (caused by internal bleeding in the brain).

How is an ischemic stroke treated?

Ischemic strokes are commonly treated with medications such as tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) to dissolve blood clots or mechanical thrombectomy to remove the clot.

What is the time window for administering tPA?

tPA is most effective when administered within 4.5 hours of the onset of stroke symptoms, although it can sometimes be given up to 9 hours in specific cases.

How is a hemorrhagic stroke treated?

Hemorrhagic strokes are often treated by controlling bleeding, reducing pressure on the brain, and using surgical interventions to repair the blood vessels.

Can strokes be prevented?

Many strokes can be prevented by managing high blood pressure, diabetes, and high cholesterol and leading a healthy lifestyle.

Can a person fully recover from a stroke?

The extent of recovery varies for each individual. Some people may regain most or all of their lost functions with proper treatment, rehabilitation, and support, while others may experience long-term disabilities.

How long does stroke recovery take?

Stroke recovery is a gradual process, and the duration varies from person to person. Some improvements may occur within the first few months, but recovery can continue for several years.

Are there any medications to prevent future strokes?

Depending on the individual's risk factors, doctors may prescribe medications such as antiplatelet drugs (e.g., aspirin) or anticoagulants to help prevent future strokes.

Can a second stroke be prevented?

Yes, the risk of a second stroke can be reduced by managing risk factors, taking prescribed medications, and making necessary lifestyle changes.

What is the role of surgery in stroke treatment?

Surgery is performed in cases of severe blockages or aneurysms that contribute to strokes. Procedures like carotid endarterectomy or angioplasty can help improve blood flow to the brain.

Can strokes occur in young adults?

Strokes are more common in older adults, but they can occur in younger individuals due to factors such as genetic conditions, drug abuse, heart disease, or certain medical conditions.

What is the role of telemedicine in stroke care?

Telemedicine allows healthcare providers to remotely assess stroke patients, provide consultations, and guide treatment decisions, particularly in rural areas or during emergencies.

Are there any complementary therapies for stroke treatment?

Certain alternative therapies like acupuncture, yoga, and music therapy may be used alongside conventional stroke treatment, but their effectiveness may vary, and it's important to consult with healthcare professionals.
