Stroke

Stroke is defined by WHO as the clinical syndrome of rapid onset of focal (or global, as in subarachnoid haemorrhage) cerebral deficit, lasting more than 24 h or leading to death, with no apparent cause other than a vascular one.Stroke can be devided to ischaemic stroke(approximately 85% in white populations) and haemorrhagic stroke (about 15%):either intracerebral haemorrhage or subarachnoid haemorrhage. Transient ischaemic attack (TIA) has similar symptoms as ischemic stroke, but it differs from ischaemic stroke in its duration (traditional view was that it lasts less than 24 h, but nowdays it is considered that TIA lasts less than 1 hour), and it doesnot leave neither any permanent neurological deficit, nor signs or brain imaging.
