The Key To Stroke Diagnosis And Treatment

Stroke, often referred to as a “brain attack,” happens when the blood vessel that carries nutrients and oxygen to the brain gets blocked due to sudden ruptures or clots. This causes a depletion in the vital oxygen supply. Consequently, the brain cells die and cripple the functions controlled by the brain. The severity of damage depends on the stroke’s severity and the location of the brain injury. Whatever the stage of severity, for a person to recover and reclaim life, rehabilitation is a blessing and the key to better stroke diagnosis and treatment!

Stroke Rehabilitation Goals:


  • To maximize functional abilities
  • To perform activities of daily living
  • To improve the level of independence
  • To avoid further complications
  • To rebuild the person’s quality of life
  • To facilitate the transition back to their home, community, and work

Ischemic Strokes
01

Ischemic Strokes

Caused by blood clots in the vessel, making it narrow, sometimes completely blocking the blood inflow to the brain. This is the most common type (70-80%) of stroke.
Hemorrhagic Strokes
02

Hemorrhagic Strokes

Caused by the rupture of blood vessels, which leads to bleeding within or near the brain. It is less common (15 to 20%) compared to ischemic stroke.

HAMSA Rehab leads in stroke diagnosis and treatment. After a detailed diagnosis, the treatment procedures start with immediate effect.

Tissue Plasminogen Activator (tPA) Injection

A tPA is provided through the arm vein to dissolve the blood clot and restore blood flow. It is given within the first 3 hours after stroke symptoms are observed.

Endovascular Procedures

This treatment is provided directly inside the blocked blood vessel. It can be in the form of a catheter tPA delivery to the brain or by using a stent retriever to remove the clot.

Surgical Treatment

Abnormalities in the blood vessel are repaired with the help of surgeries. This can be in the form of surgical clippings, coilings, surgical AVM removal, or stereotactic radiosurgery.

Endovascular Procedures

A less invasive treatment procedure used to treat certain kinds of hemorrhagic strokes.
