Brain Stroke

Stroke is when there is a poor blood flow to the brain that results in cell death. There are two  types of stroke 1) ischemic stroke which is defined as lack of blood flow to the brain, 2) haemorrhagic stroke which occurs due to bleeding. These result in part of the brain not functioning properly. Symptoms like inability to move or feel on one side of the body, feeling like the world is spinning, or loss of vision. If the symptoms last in less than one or two hours then  it is known as a transient ischemic attack  also known as  mini-stroke. A haemorrhagic stroke  associated with a severe headache. The symptoms of a stroke can be permanent.

In 2013 about 6.9 million people had an ischemic stroke and about 3.4 million people had a haemorrhagic stroke. In 2015 about 42.4 million people who had previously had a stroke and they were still alive. In between 1990 and 2010 the number of strokes which occurred each year was decreased by 10% in the developed world and increased by approximately 10% in the developing world. After coronary artery disease, death cause by the stroke was in second place in 2015. About half of the people who have had a stroke live less than the one year.
