Defining the Problem Correctly

What are stroke and paralysis?

A stroke occurs when blood flow to the brain is interrupted by a blockage in a blood vessel or bleeding inside the brain.
This is due to the interruption of movement depending on the affected area of ​​the brain.
sudden changes in speech, vision, balance, memory, attention, emotion, and swallowing functions
Losses may occur.

In everyday language "paralysis" mostly develops after a stroke
It describes loss of movement; however, the effects of a stroke are not limited to muscle strength.
No. Some people can walk but have difficulties with speaking, seeing, swallowing, attention, or...
They may experience significant difficulty controlling their emotions.

01

Acute Stroke Treatment

In the initial hours at the hospital, imaging, vasodilator treatment, and mechanical removal of the clot were performed.
Removal of the device, bleeding control, or other emergency procedures may be necessary.
This area is entirely the responsibility of emergency medicine, neurology, and related hospital teams.

02

Post-Stroke Rehabilitation

Once the patient is medically stable, they can resume movement, daily activities, speech, and swallowing.
Personalized solutions for cognitive function, psychology, and return to social life.
Multidisciplinary rehabilitation begins.

Not all strokes are the same.
The affected blood vessel, brain region, extent of damage, and time to access treatment.
Age, comorbidities, and participation in rehabilitation affect outcomes.
Someone else's recovery time cannot be a benchmark for me.

Correct Diagnosis Determines Treatment.

What are the types of stroke?

🧠

Ischemic Stroke

It is the blockage of a blood vessel supplying the brain due to a clot or other obstruction.
It is the most common type of stroke. In suitable patients, timely intervention with a vascular opener is necessary.
Treatments can be applied.

💧

Hemorrhagic Stroke

It occurs when a blood vessel in or around the brain bleeds.
Blood pressure control, intensive care, neurosurgery, or other medical interventions may be required.

Transient Ischemic Attack

It is the rapid resolution of stroke-like symptoms. It means "it's over."
It should not be ignored; it could be a warning sign of an impending stroke and requires urgent evaluation.

The treatments for ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke are not the same.
Taking aspirin or blood thinners without imaging can cause hemorrhagic stroke.
It can be dangerous. Self-medication should not be started at the onset of new symptoms.

Time is Brain

How to Recognize the Emergency Signs of Stroke?

Symptoms usually begin suddenly. It takes time for a person to show all the symptoms.
It's not necessary; even a single new symptom is enough to call for emergency help.

Balance
Sudden dizziness, impaired gait, imbalance, or loss of coordination.
Eye
Sudden loss of vision in one or both eyes, double vision, or marked visual impairment.
Face
One side of the face drooping, numbness, or sagging when smiling.
Arm / Leg
Sudden weakness, numbness, or drooping of the arm, especially on one side of the body.
Talk
Stuttering, inability to find words, incoherent speech, or inability to understand what is being said.
Time
Note the start time and call 112 immediately; request an ambulance instead of driving the person yourself.

Even if the symptoms improve, it is still an emergency.

The facial expression or speech impediment completely disappeared after a few minutes.
It could even be a transient ischemic attack. An emergency assessment is needed the same day.

Do not give the person food, drink, or medicine; swallowing may not be safe. Symptoms
Record the start time and inform the healthcare team of any medications the patient is taking.
