What is Ischaemic Stroke?
An ischaemic stroke occurs when the blood supply to a part of the brain is blocked, usually by a blood clot or a narrowed artery. Without an adequate supply of oxygen and nutrients, brain cells begin to die within minutes, making it a medical emergency that requires immediate treatment.
An ischaemic stroke is the most common type of stroke, accounting for nearly 85% of all stroke cases. It can affect movement, speech, vision, memory, balance, and other brain functions, depending on the area of the brain involved. Common warning signs include sudden weakness or numbness on one side of the body, difficulty speaking or understanding speech, facial drooping, loss of vision, dizziness, severe loss of balance, or confusion.
Early diagnosis and prompt treatment are critical to restoring blood flow, minimising brain damage, and improving recovery. Depending on the patient's condition and the time since symptoms began, treatment may include clot-dissolving medications (thrombolysis), mechanical thrombectomy (clot removal), supportive medical care, rehabilitation, and preventive therapies to reduce the risk of future strokes.
