Stroke: Brain Attack
Sudden loss of function
of a part of the brain
Due to a problem with
blood supply
![Page 3: Dr Aaron de Souza MD, DM, DNB, MNAMS Consultant Neurologist, Manipal Goa Hospital](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062302/568164c8550346895dd6e1b0/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Types of Stroke Loss of blood supply to a part of the
brain: Ischaemic (85%)
Bleeding within brain matter: Haemorrhagic (15%)

Why is Stroke Important? Third leading cause of death
Heart disease Cancer Stroke
700, 000 strokes per year in USA; 450, 000 in Europe Almost 8% of ischaemic and 40% of
haemorrhagic strokes die in 30 days
![Page 14: Dr Aaron de Souza MD, DM, DNB, MNAMS Consultant Neurologist, Manipal Goa Hospital](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062302/568164c8550346895dd6e1b0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Indian Scenario
Incidence: 150 per lakh (150 persons out of every lakh,
or 3 in each 2 000) Most common neurologic disease after
migraine and epilepsy Of stroke patients still alive at 6months, over
30% are dependent on others for even basic functions
![Page 16: Dr Aaron de Souza MD, DM, DNB, MNAMS Consultant Neurologist, Manipal Goa Hospital](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062302/568164c8550346895dd6e1b0/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
A Deadly Disease,Becoming More Frequent
Increased incidence of stroke
As the population grows older due to
longer life expectancy,
Lifestyle changes in India
High incidence of diabetes
![Page 17: Dr Aaron de Souza MD, DM, DNB, MNAMS Consultant Neurologist, Manipal Goa Hospital](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062302/568164c8550346895dd6e1b0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Doppler Studies
Special ultrasound
examination for arteries in the neck
Detects clot or narrowing
Helps plan treatment to prevent
recurrent stroke.
![Page 33: Dr Aaron de Souza MD, DM, DNB, MNAMS Consultant Neurologist, Manipal Goa Hospital](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062302/568164c8550346895dd6e1b0/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Treatment
Primary Prevention Persons who have never had a stroke
Secondary Prevention Persons with stroke, to prevent another
Treatment of acute stroke Treatment of chronic stroke
![Page 34: Dr Aaron de Souza MD, DM, DNB, MNAMS Consultant Neurologist, Manipal Goa Hospital](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062302/568164c8550346895dd6e1b0/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Primary Prevention
Modify stroke risk factors (BP, diabetes, cholesterol)
Stop smoking Exercise Tablets for BP or cholesterol Anticoagulation for heart disease
![Page 35: Dr Aaron de Souza MD, DM, DNB, MNAMS Consultant Neurologist, Manipal Goa Hospital](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062302/568164c8550346895dd6e1b0/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Secondary Prevention
Aspirin Other meds (clopidogrel) Carotid artery surgery if block found Treat heart disease if present
![Page 36: Dr Aaron de Souza MD, DM, DNB, MNAMS Consultant Neurologist, Manipal Goa Hospital](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062302/568164c8550346895dd6e1b0/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Treatment of acute stroke
Within 3 hours of onset: IV Alteplase/tPA Many conditions to be fulfiled before use
Treat brain swelling Treat complications of unconsciousness /
immobility
![Page 37: Dr Aaron de Souza MD, DM, DNB, MNAMS Consultant Neurologist, Manipal Goa Hospital](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062302/568164c8550346895dd6e1b0/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Intravenous Thrombolysis
Uses tPA/alteplase Reduces risk of long-term deficits due to
stroke, speeds up recovery Risky: can cause severe bleeding Strict conditions for use Patient must reach hospital <3hours after
onset
![Page 38: Dr Aaron de Souza MD, DM, DNB, MNAMS Consultant Neurologist, Manipal Goa Hospital](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062302/568164c8550346895dd6e1b0/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
“Brain Attack” As much of an emergency as heart
attack A few minutes can make lots of
difference to outcome Get the patient to hospital FAST
![Page 39: Dr Aaron de Souza MD, DM, DNB, MNAMS Consultant Neurologist, Manipal Goa Hospital](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062302/568164c8550346895dd6e1b0/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
![Page 40: Dr Aaron de Souza MD, DM, DNB, MNAMS Consultant Neurologist, Manipal Goa Hospital](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062302/568164c8550346895dd6e1b0/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Treatment of Chronic Deficits Neurological rehabilitation Physiotherapy Medicines to relieve stiffness Surgery for limb deformities Botox injections Newer machines developed for faster
recovery
![Page 41: Dr Aaron de Souza MD, DM, DNB, MNAMS Consultant Neurologist, Manipal Goa Hospital](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062302/568164c8550346895dd6e1b0/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Social Rehabilitation
Prolonged recovery after stroke Many patients with severe deficits in
the community Need vocational training Family needs counselling
![Page 42: Dr Aaron de Souza MD, DM, DNB, MNAMS Consultant Neurologist, Manipal Goa Hospital](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062302/568164c8550346895dd6e1b0/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
TIA
Transient: short lived (<1 day) Ischaemic: lack of blood flow Attack: weakness, numbness, speech,
blindness Warning sign of future stroke risk Should NEVER be ignored Treatment with aspirin
![Page 43: Dr Aaron de Souza MD, DM, DNB, MNAMS Consultant Neurologist, Manipal Goa Hospital](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062302/568164c8550346895dd6e1b0/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Stroke Services at Manipal Hospital
Department of Neurology Backed up by 24hr CT, MRI services Intravenous thrombolysis Facilities for rehabilitation Research into strokes in Goa.
![Page 44: Dr Aaron de Souza MD, DM, DNB, MNAMS Consultant Neurologist, Manipal Goa Hospital](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062302/568164c8550346895dd6e1b0/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Take Home Points
Stroke is a common disease
Warning signs of stroke should always be treated
Lifestyle modifications and control of risk factors
Acute stroke: IMMEDIATE transfer to hospital
Chronic stroke: needs long term rehabilitation
