Warning signs of Stroke | Brain Stroke: SymptomsTreatment & Prevention | Dr. N R Ichaporia

Stroke or brain attack (as it is commonly known as) is a very life-threatening condition. Slurring of speech and paralysis of one side of the body are some of the common symptoms of a stroke. Immediate medical emergency management can help a person survive an episode of the stroke. In this video Dr. N R Ichaporia, Neurologist is going to explain to us about Warning signs of Stroke (Brain Stroke: SymptomsTreatment & Prevention ). Before understanding the preventive measures for brain stroke let us first understand what is a stroke?
What is stroke (Brain Attack)?
Stroke is one of the most commonly used words by people but in the medical language is means " Brain attack". It occurs when the blood vessels in the brain get blocked or break open. This is a very serious condition and many patients may suffer severely if they get affected by this condition. But now there are various treatment options available in order to treat this condition. It is very important for people to understand that stroke is a preventable disease.
What Causes Strokes?
There are many risk factors for stroke, most important being the big 5
These Big 5 Factors are :
High blood pressure
Diabetes
Tobacco Use
Cardiac Disease
Previous Stroke
Prevention of Stroke
If the person eliminates all these 5 risk factors, then the chances of getting strokes are minimal. Another preventive measure is proper exercise and a healthy diet on the daily bases. If a person makes this as a daily routine, 70-80% of strokes can be prevented and this is an important step that people in the general population should take.
In case a person is suffering from stroke, one needs to be rushed to the hospital, which treats strokes and not a nearby hospital as they may not have facilities to treat stroke.
Early symptoms of stroke
- Sudden weakness in one side of the body.
- Face becomes crooked.
-A person cant speak or not able to see with one or both the eyes.
- Severe headache.
Then the person should be immediately rushed to stroke ready hospital.
What does a stroke ready hospital do?
In the Sahyadri Hospital, they have arranged a stroke code wherein as soon as the patient arrives an announcement is made over the system and the doctors who treat strokes rush to the patient. A CT scan and MRI are done within minutes and the decision is made about how to treat the patient. In case of stroke, it's important that it treated as early as possible because the earlier you treat the results are better.
Many new drugs are available, for treating a stroke
For Acute stroke, if the blood vessels are blocked, clot busters are used, which can break can the clots and dissolve the clots. It also helps patient recovery and can also prevent death.
In the case, severe stroke when a large blood vessel is blocked, the doctors along with medical treatment have to perform the surgery to extract the clot.
All these patients are time-bound and if treated timely the patient's life can be saved and the patient can recover. We urge that if you are anyone around you has these stroke symptoms, rush to stroke ready hospital as soon as possible.
Sahyadri Hospital also has a Stroke Rehab Unit wherein after the stroke the patients with disabilities caused due stroke have to undergo treatment from our physiotherapist.
