Date Published: 2023-08-25

Abstract:
The World Health Organization describes stroke as a clinical syndrome with rapidly growing clinical indicators of focal or global impairment of brain function in the case of coma, with symptoms lasting more than hours or culminating in death, with no other obvious cause other than vascular origin. Ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes are the two major categories of strokes., The subtypes of ischemic infarct with the highest in-hospital mortality are cardio-embolic stroke and atherothrombotic stroke. Compared to other ischemic stroke subtypes, individuals with cardio-embolic stroke and atherothrombotic stroke have poor short-term prognoses.
