What is Stroke?

Stroke is a neurological emergency that occurs when blood supply to a part of the brain is interrupted or when bleeding occurs within the brain.

Since the brain controls movement, speech, memory, coordination, and other essential functions, a stroke can affect different abilities depending on the area of the brain involved.

Early recognition and timely medical evaluation are important for appropriate management and reducing the risk of complications.

Symptoms of Stroke

Stroke symptoms may appear suddenly and require immediate medical attention.

Common warning signs may include:

• Sudden weakness or numbness, especially on one side of the body

• Difficulty speaking or understanding speech

• Sudden changes in vision

• Loss of balance or coordination

• Severe headache with unusual symptoms

• Confusion or difficulty performing routine activities

Anyone experiencing possible stroke symptoms should seek urgent medical evaluation.

Comprehensive Stroke Care at ShardaCare – Healthcity

Stroke management requires coordinated care from multiple specialists. At ShardaCare – Healthcity, our Neurosciences team provides evaluation, treatment planning, and recovery support through a multidisciplinary approach.

Neurology

Neurology plays a key role in diagnosing and managing stroke. Neurologists evaluate symptoms, assess neurological function, and develop treatment plans based on the patient’s condition.

Neurosurgery

Neurosurgery may be involved in selected stroke-related conditions where surgical evaluation or intervention is required.

Neurosurgeons work with neurologists and other specialists to determine appropriate management options.

Stroke Rehabilitation

Stroke Rehabilitation focuses on helping patients recover abilities affected by stroke, including movement, communication, coordination, and daily living skills.

Rehabilitation plans are personalised according to the patient’s recovery needs.

Movement Disorders

Movement Disorders involve conditions affecting movement, coordination, and muscle control.

Patients recovering from neurological conditions may require assessment and management of movement-related challenges.

Paediatric Neurology

Paediatric Neurology provides specialised neurological care for infants, children, and adolescents.

Children experiencing neurological conditions, including stroke-related concerns, require age-specific evaluation and treatment planning.

Interventional Neuroradiology

Interventional Neuroradiology uses minimally invasive, image-guided procedures to diagnose and treat certain conditions involving blood vessels of the brain.

It may support stroke management in selected cases where appropriate.

Epilepsy

Epilepsy is a neurological condition associated with recurrent seizures. Stroke patients may require evaluation and management of seizure-related concerns as part of their neurological care.

Types of Stroke

Stroke is broadly classified into different types:

Ischemic Stroke

An ischemic stroke occurs when a blood vessel supplying the brain becomes blocked, reducing blood flow to brain tissue.

Haemorrhagic Stroke

A haemorrhagic stroke occurs when bleeding happens within or around the brain.

The type of stroke is determined through medical evaluation and diagnostic investigations, which help guide treatment decisions.

Stroke Diagnosis and Evaluation

Accurate diagnosis helps doctors determine the appropriate treatment approach.

Evaluation may include:

• Neurological examination

• Review of symptoms and medical history

• Brain imaging and other diagnostic tests

• Assessment of risk factors and overall health condition

The diagnostic approach depends on the individual patient’s symptoms and clinical condition.

Stroke Treatment Approach

Stroke treatment depends on factors such as the type of stroke, severity, timing of presentation, and overall patient health.

Treatment may involve:

• Medical management

• Specialist interventions when required

• Rehabilitation support

• Long-term prevention strategies

The care plan is personalised after evaluation by qualified specialists.

Stroke Rehabilitation and Recovery Support

Recovery after stroke varies from person to person. Rehabilitation plays an important role in helping patients improve function and adapt to changes after stroke.

Stroke Rehabilitation may include:

• Physical therapy for movement and balance

• Speech and communication support

• Occupational therapy for daily activities

• Cognitive support when required

The rehabilitation plan is designed according to the patient’s abilities and recovery goals.
