Stroke Awareness and Treatment
Sudden death of the
brain cells due to the lack of blood supply to brain may cause stroke. Brain
cells quickly die due to lack of blood as blood supply oxygen and nutrients and
remove waste products. Based on the parts of the brain affected a stroke may
cause paralysis, loss of memory and reasoning ability, impairment, speech coma,
or death. A stroke also is sometimes called a brain attack or a cerebrovascular
accident (CVA).
Paralysis
Paralysis occur as a
result of stroke. One side of the body is affected which is opposite to the damaged
part of the brain by stroke. If right side of the brain is damaged, paralysis
occur on the left side of the body. This one-sided paralysis is called
hemiplegia. Stroke patients with hemiparesis or hemiplegia may have difficulties
in walking or grasping objects. Some stroke patients have problems with
swallowing, called dysphagia, due to damage to the part of the brain that
controls the muscles for swallowing. Damage to the lower part of the brain, the
cerebellum, leading to problems with body posture, walking, and balance which
may cause the body’s ability to coordinate movement which leads a disability
called ataxia.
Most
major types of stroke include:
Right-Hemisphere
Stroke
A stroke in the right
hemisphere of the brain cause paralysis in the left side of the body. This is
known as left hemiplegia.
Left-Hemisphere
Stroke
The left hemisphere of
the brain controls speech and language abilities for most people. It also controls
the movement of the right side of the body. A left-hemisphere stroke often
causes paralysis of the right side of the body. This is known as right
hemiplegia.
Brain
Stem Stroke
The brain stem serves
as a bridge in the nervous system. All the fibers that go from the body to the
brain and vice versa go through the brain stem. Strokes that occur in the brain
stem are traumatic. The brain stem controls abilities such as eye movements,
hearing, speech and swallowing. The symptoms of a brain
stem stroke are more serious and complex than other strokes.
When a stroke occurs,
fast action is needed. The sooner a stroke victim gets emergency care, the more
brain tissue can be saved. If anyone experiences the sign of a stroke, such as
slurred speech, confusion, and weakness on one side of the body, get them emergency
care. Once the symptoms are stabilized, the attention turns to recovery.
Initially, patients get in-hospital rehabilitation care, including physical
therapy and occupational therapy, to address the impacts of the stroke. After
discharge, most stroke patients continue to need outpatient rehab and may also
require in-home caregiving support.
