Types of Strokes
There are three primary classifications of stroke, and each requires a completely different medical response.
-
Ischaemic Stroke - Occurs when a blood vessel supplying the brain becomes blocked, usually by a blood clot.
-
Haemorrhagic Stroke - Occurs when a blood vessel in or around the brain ruptures and bleeds.
-
Transient Ischaemic Attack (TIA)/ Mini Stroke - Occurs when blood flow to part of the brain is temporarily blocked.
