Overview
The cause of stroke is an interruption in the blood supply, with a resulting depletion of oxygen and glucose in the affected area. This immediately reduces or abolishes neuronal function, and also initiates an ischemic cascade which causes neurons to die or be seriously damaged, further impairing brain function.
Causes
Life Threatening Causes
Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.
Common Causes
- Aneurysm
- Arteriovenous malformations
- Atherosclerosis
- Atrial fibrillation
- Embolism
- Hypertension
- Subarachnoid hemorrhage
- Thrombosis
- Transient ischemic attack
- Traumatic brain injury
- Warfarin
