Abstract:
Stroke kills about 140,000 Americans each year—that’s 1 out of every 20
deaths. Someone in the United States has a stroke every 40 seconds.
Every 4 minutes, someone dies of stroke. Every year, more than 795,000
people in the United States have a stroke. About 610,000 of these are first
or new strokes. About 185,000 strokes—nearly 1 of 4—are in people who
have had a previous stroke About 87% of all strokes are ischemic strokes,
in which blood flow to the brain is blocked. In 2009, 34% of people
hospitalized for stroke were less than 65 years old. Stroke costs the United
States an estimated $34 billion each year. This total includes the cost of
health care services, medicines to treat stroke, and missed days of work.
Stroke are important cause of increasing number in physically challenged
people. It majorly causes paralysis where half part of the body left non-
working. Stroke is caused when blood is clotted in the blood stream. It can
be identified before the occurrence by the activities of brains with the
wave form of EEG, with the abnormal wave changes

• The sudden death of brain cells due to lack of oxygen, caused by blockage of
blood flow or rupture of an artery to the brain.
• Sudden loss of speech, weakness, or paralysis of one side of the body can be
symptoms.
• A suspected stroke may be confirmed by scanning the brain with special X-
ray tests, such as CAT scans.
• Impact of stroke
Problems with speech and understanding language (aphasia), Visual
problems, including the inability to see the right visual field of each eye, analyze
items Behavioral changes, such as depression, cautiousness, and hesitancy
Impaired ability to read, write, and learn new information, Memory problems.
STROKE:
• EEG: An electroencephalogram (EEG) is a test used to find problems related to
electrical activity of the brain. An EEG tracks and records brain wave patterns.
Small metal discs with thin wires (electrodes) are placed on the scalp, and then
send signals to a computer to record the results.

Stroke identification with eeg:

Fig 2: stroke EEG waveform
EEG data signal is analyzed in the time domain as well as in the frequency domain.
To the best of our knowledge, no previous work has exploited multi-domain
features explicitly for ischemic stroke detection with EEG signals. The process
involves data cleaning and features extraction, and training and testing of machine
learning models. Data cleaning comprises of data pre-processing leading to time
and frequency domain features extraction process. The feature set is used to train
and test machine learning models. HiNT develops a wearable point-of-care
monitoring device that detects when patients at high-risk are having a stroke.
