Stroke Prevention

Meaning

Stroke Prevention encompasses a comprehensive array of clinical, pharmacological, and lifestyle strategies designed to significantly reduce the incidence of cerebrovascular accidents, which result from either ischemic blockages or hemorrhagic bleeding in the brain. Effective prevention mandates the aggressive management of all modifiable risk factors, including chronic hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, and atrial fibrillation. Within the context of hormonal health, addressing underlying endocrine disorders that contribute to systemic vascular risk is a key component of this crucial preventative strategy.
