Understanding Stroke (Stroke #1)

[alexasmithy]

love the video really good

[opheliablossom]

Thank you for this video. My mother had a stroke for the first time tonight while I was having dinner with her. It's nice to have a better understanding of it especially since it was so frightening to see first hand.

[RainB0wHair]

Great explanation of the stroke, I got an exam on stroke soon and this is really great to get into my head :)

[ewheeler07]

The doctor who talks sounds like he's had one or two strokes.

[7minute2workout]

Great explanation about stroke. Healthy lifestyle and exercise can also prevent stroke as shown in the video "Reduce Risk of Stroke with Exercise ".

[Joguzz7]

Thank you for getting me a high grade on my essay! :D

[FascistCrab]

Mini strokes run in my family. Are they any different than regular strokes?

[lcestnick]

What happens after stroke and what to do about it (visual attention, how it works, fails, leads to learning problems such as dyslexia and other phenomenon and what to do about it). Search "Dr. Laurie Cestnick" "Harvard University" on youtube for a video. Happy holidays!

[ThirdClick]

[medicappharmacy]

The risk factors are nicely explained!

[apollojeans]

How stupid for a person to dislike something about knowledge. sheessh

[laurenblack58]

[inexplicable92]

[laurenblack58]

[SmartProgramer]

thx

[odooma721]

That was a good explanation for a nursing student. Awesome!

[thepsychopimp]

Having a stroke scares the hell out of me. At 43, I spent most of my life ignoring my high blood pressure. I'm now taking Lisinopril.

[DoubleDutchBust]

very intresting.

[ItsJustJasmine]

can certain prescription medicines cause high blood pressure? like if you are a teen or young adult and you are active and not eating too much salt?

[1234567707]

This video is very good. I learned to many things from this video

[sajid505]

good

[MrSymposier]

I have learned so much form the video from understanding strokes to preventing it. It's one of the killer diseases now a days. I know this one site, symposier where in, it discusses strokes and related areas. Ideas are all coming from medical doctors and experts.

[luismartinez1091]

Solid dance you are premature in your analysis of stroke. Most strokes are caused by an embolus or thrombus usually due to Atherosclerosis --- so the best solution is watch your LDL levels

[mattz928]

sometimes.. to cure this they would use a machine to crush (will not damage you) your vessels, arteries or brains in your head.

[gooziddaiejoon]

it's called angioplasty.

a baloon is sent into your arterioles where the plaque exists. then it inflates and crushes all the cholesterol and fatty deposists, giving the blood vessel a newer more open shape. Although angioplasty is the fastest, cheapest way, it doesn't SOLVE the problem and patients will experience re-occlusion in a period of 3-6 months post operation.

Stress is inevitable. What you can change is how you respond to it.
