The conditions of are defined as stable Mauro Coruzziin art circuit boardscaught by a ischemic stroke last Tuesday 14.03. Fortunately, he received timely help that made it possible “to be able to act immediately from a therapeutic point of view,” as his advisor revealed. Ischemic stroke is caused by decreased blood flow and oxygen supply to the brain. It occurs when one of the arterial vessels that carry blood to the brain closes: the narrowing can be caused by the vessel itself (stenosis) or by a thrombus that has migrated with the bloodstream (embolus).

This is the most common form of stroke, accounting for 80% of all cases. The remaining 20% ​​of cases are hemorrhagic strokes, which are more dangerous because they are caused by a rupture of a cerebral artery and result in irreversible consequences and often death.

Ischemic Stroke: Symptoms

The Veronesi Foundation website shows the main symptoms of an ischemic stroke: “There are five alarm bells: Weakness or numbness on one side of the face – explains Dr. Marco Stramba-Badiale, Director of the Geriatric-Cardiovascular Department and Experimental Laboratory for Rehabilitation Research and Cerebrovascular Medicine of the Auxologico of Milan – one of the limbs (arm or leg) of the middle of the body, which can also be characterized by tingling. Or the stroke may manifest as an inability to speak or understand someone who is speaking; with darkening or loss of vision in only one eye; with an unexplained feeling of dizziness, spinning or falling and/or severe headache.

The reasons

Some clinical conditions, especially if they are chronic, can more easily predispose to the development of a stroke: among them the cardiovascular diseasesblood pressure changes and diabetes mellitus. In addition, the presence of atherosclerotic plaques on the vessels that carry blood to the brain, or a transient ischemic attack (TIA), which can herald a subsequent stroke, can also affect onset. “The link between blood pressure and stroke – adds Stramba-Badiale – depends on age and remains so even after 80 years of age.”
