brain attack

brain attack

 Stroke is a medical case of a medical emergency. He spoke stroke when it stops the flow of blood to the brain begins its cells die within minutes only. There are two types of strokes. The most common type is caused by a blood clot blocking a blood vessel in the brain. And it called this kind as "ischemic stroke".

The second type is called as "hemorrhagic stroke" and is caused by a ruptured blood vessels and bleeding in the brain. Strokes occur as small, or "transient ischemic attacks", when it cut off the blood flow to the brain only a brief period.

Stroke symptoms are: Sudden weakness or numbness of the face, arm or leg, especially on one side of the body only. sudden confusion or trouble speaking or understanding what is being said. sudden difficulty in vision, so in one eye or both eyes. sudden trouble walking, and feeling light-headed or loss of balance or symmetry of movement. sudden severe headache of unknown cause. If it appears one has any offer of these symptoms, he must go to the hospital to start treatment immediately.

It aims to stop the treatment of acute ischemic stroke during the occurrence by dissolving blood clots quickly, or by stopping the bleeding. As for rehabilitation after stroke. They help the patient overcome resulting from damage caused by stroke deficit. The pharmacological treatment with blood thinners is the most common treatment for stroke.

Introduction

Stroke or "brain shift" is a serious condition that can lead to death or substantial disability. One of the leading causes of death as it is the most common causes of disability in adults. This educational program explains what a stroke. And it discusses the causes and signs and When should I go to the emergency department. It also provides an overview of treatment options and the instructions given to the patient when discharged from the hospital, as well as information on how to prevent a stroke.

What is a stroke

The brain controls most of the functions of the body. It allows us to think and understand and speak and move and feel. In order for the brain is working well it constantly needs oxygen and glucose. Blood oxygen and glucose to the brain carries. Stroke occurs when the blood is unable to reach the brain. If the brain does not receive enough blood supply, the cells begin to damaged brain and is unable to do his job well.

    As long as the brain controls most of the functions of the body, the stroke can affect the whole body. The effects can range from mild effects of stroke to severe effects. It can result in stroke paralysis and emotional problems and difficulties in thinking and speech. There are 3 types of strokes:

     Type called ischemic heart cross a "mild stroke." It occurs when a clog the arteries that feed the brain temporarily blockage. This is caused by the blockage stroke-like symptoms and lasts from a few seconds to a few hours.

 Type of stroke is called ischemic stroke, and can occur when a blood vessel linseed or Atadhaq due to fatty deposits called plaque. Where they can gather blood cells around the plaque and blood clot formation impede blood flow to the brain.

     Type is called hemorrhagic stroke. It occurs when a ruptured blood vessel in the brain, where blood seeps into the brain material Vilv some cells and other cells are deprived of blood to receive you need to stay alive.

the reasons

Strokes can result from heart problems or high cholesterol or form plaques inside arteries. It can also be caused by high blood pressure and diseases that make blood clotting predisposed to more than normal. It can accumulate cholesterol, and its accumulation leads to blockage of the carotid and vertebral arteries of fatty deposits, or plaque, which leads to reduced blood flow to the brain, and then a stroke occurs.

 It can also be separated parts of the plaque and travels through the arteries to the brain, which leads to blockage of small arteries, which can result in strokes this case also called embolism. When the blood lead to blockage of blood in the brain or neck vessels clot it is called thrombosis disease. Heart problems may lead to the formation of blood clots within the heart. Some of these clots can be separated and transmitted to the brain, leading to blockage of blood vessels in the brain, causing a stroke.

 This condition is called embolization. When the blood pressure is high the person for a long time, it could hurt the blood vessels in the brain. High blood pressure can cause narrowing of the blood vessels which in turn can cause a stroke. When arteries become narrow-call status stenosis. Also, high blood pressure can weaken the blood and this may lead to bleeding within the brain. The smoking and drug abuse increase the cardiovascular problems and strokes. Distortions may lead in the blood vessels of the brain to bleed too.

 These abnormalities include aneurysms and arterial venous malformations. Aneurysms are small abnormalities in the arteries of the brain in the form of the balloon. Arterial venous malformations are abnormal connections between arteries and veins in the brain. Each of the walls of arterial venous malformations and maternal blood are weaker than the natural arteries and can bleed easily, leading to the occurrence of stroke. To reduce the risk of death or disability caused by stroke you:

You can see warning signs of stroke so that subject to immediate treatment.

     To change habits that can harm blood vessels of the body. We will discuss these actions in the following section.

 Do not neglect the signs of stroke even if they disappeared.
     See the time. When did the first symptoms
     If there is one or more of the symptoms of stroke and continued for more than a few minutes, do not wait, contact emergency medical services.

Tests conducted in the emergency department indicate whether the symptoms are caused by stroke or transient ischemic heart or other medical problem. The different treatment of stroke caused by the blockage of an artery for the treatment of stroke caused by the rupture of a blood vessel. In the hospital may give you aspirin or a blood thinner to prevent the formation of blood clots have.

  Some also called blood drugs antiplatelet thinners, when dealing with blood thinners can become in need of periodic blood tests. It may also give you other medicines when they are in the hospital.

     Weight and locomotor activity.

It is important to work to control the risk that can be tuned in coordination with your doctor or health care providers your own elements. The make healthy changes to your lifestyle can reduce the chance of getting a stroke.

 Adjust the height of blood pressure

Also called high blood pressure hypertension. This is the most important factor of stroke-causing factors. It is advisable to maintain the blood pressure without 80/120 mm Hg. The walls of the arteries in people who are suffering from high blood pressure, narrower than the normal limit, and this increases the chances of a stroke. Here are some ways you can adjust the blood pressure have:

 Keep an appropriate weight and avoid obesity.

This condition is called atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis causes heart disease. The heart disease is the first cause of death. Ill coronary artery causes a lot of complications.

 By adjusting the cholesterol, you can improve the blood vessels in your heart and in your brain health. When the blood vessels in your heart to be healthy, at least your risk of stroke due to embolization. It is advisable that you keep your cholesterol less than 200 mg / L and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol less than 100 mg / dL. You can lower your cholesterol through your:

 Eating smaller amount of egg yolk.
     Exercise and lose weight if you are overweight.
     Eat white meat than red meat.
     Taking cholesterol-lowering medications.

Recently, cholesterol-lowering drugs are increasingly prescribed. And prescribe cholesterol-lowering drugs, health care providers based on the general health condition of the patient and the risk of heart disease and stroke and is not based on the level of cholesterol when the patient only. Blood thinners can be given to patients who have had heart problems. It may be necessary to open the arteries of the neck by surgery for the prevention of strokes. This process is called the eradication of the lining of the artery.

Quit Smoking

Smoking is linked to the accumulation of fatty substances in the carotid artery. This is a blockage of an artery of the major causes of stroke. Scientists believe that smoking harms the lining of the arteries and facilitate the accumulation of fatty materials by leading to closed. Nicotine in cigarettes and other tobacco products raises blood pressure
.

 Smoking increases the density of blood and makes it more prone to clotting. If you suffer from diabetes or problems with heart rhythm or blood clotting, the management of these health conditions can help reduce the risk of stroke. See your doctor and follow his instructions on how to manage these cases.
