WHY DO STROKES HAPPEN?• Why do strokes happen?• Like all organs, the brain needs the oxygen and nutrients
provided by blood to function properly. If the supply of blood is restricted or stopped, brain cells begin to die. This can lead to brain injury, disability and possibly death.
• There are two main causes of strokes:• ischaemic – where the blood supply is stopped due to a
blood clot (this accounts for 85% of all cases)• haemorrhagic – where a weakened blood vessel supplying
the brain bursts

word FAST: Face-Arms-Speech-Time.• Face – the face may have dropped on one side, the person may
not be able to smile or their mouth or eye may have dropped.• Arms – the person with suspected stroke may not be able to lift
both arms and keep them there because of arm weakness or numbness in one arm.
• Speech – their speech may be slurred or garbled, or the person may not be able to talk at all despite appearing to be awake.
• Time – it is time to dial 999 immediately if you see any of these signs or symptoms.

TIA – MINI STROKE
• What is a TIA (mini-stroke)?• Transient ischaemic attack (TIA) is also called
'mini-stroke'. It is similar to a stroke and has the same signs, but gets better within 24 hours. However, it could be a warning sign of a more serious stroke and it is vital that it gets the same F.A.S.T. action by calling 999.

14
ACT FAST
• Why you must Act F.A.S.T.• A stroke is a medical emergency that requires
immediate medical attention. So recognising the signs of stroke and calling 999 for an ambulance is crucial. The sooner somebody who is having a stroke gets urgent medical attention, the better their chances of a good recovery.
• Rapid diagnosis of TIA (mini-stroke) allows urgent steps to be taken to reduce the risk of having a stroke.

IF I,VE A STROKE
• What’s happened?• Because a stroke happens so quickly, often
people leave hospital without being completely sure what’s happened or why. But it’s important that you are. You need to understand what a stroke is and the things that can make it more likely to happen, so that you can do all you can to reduce the risk of it happening again.

31
IF I,VE A STROKE• Will I get better?
• Because every stroke is different, there is no set pattern for recovering from one. So it can be difficult to say how well or how quickly you’ll recover.
• It’s likely that you’ll see some immediate recovery in the first few days and weeks after your stroke. After this early burst of recovery, progress tends to slow down. This is normal and doesn’t mean that you won’t recover any further.
• Getting better will involve rehabilitation, which is about overcoming and adapting to the effects of your stroke. Your therapists will give you exercises and advice to help your relearn abilities you have lost and how you new ways of doing things. Starting your rehabilitation as soon as possible after your stroke will help to avoid further problems from developing and give you the best chances for recovery.

IF I,VE A STROKE
• Will I have another stroke?
• For many stroke survivors, their greatest fear is having another stroke.
• Once you’ve had a stroke your risk of having another is increased, but understanding what factors may have caused your stroke will help you know how to reduce your risk of having another one. If you’re not clear, go back to your doctor and ask.
