A stroke occurs when a blood clot blocks an artery or vessel in the brain, interrupting blood flow and oxygen. There are two main types of strokes: ischemic, caused by a blocked artery, and hemorrhagic, caused by a ruptured blood vessel. Signs of a stroke include facial drooping, arm weakness, speech difficulties, and time to call for help. Symptoms include headache, nausea, numbness, weakness, and paralysis. If someone is having a stroke, call an ambulance immediately and follow first aid procedures until help arrives. Lifestyle changes like managing health conditions, diet, exercise, and avoiding smoking can help prevent strokes.

There are two main types of strokes: ischemic and hemorrhagic. Ischemic strokes occur when a blood clot blocks blood flow to the brain, while hemorrhagic strokes happen when a blood vessel in the brain ruptures. Symptoms depend on which area of the brain is affected but may include weakness on one side of the body, speech problems, or slurred speech. Treatment aims to restore blood flow if given within hours of symptom onset but cannot be used for hemorrhagic strokes due to the risk of bleeding.
Cerebro vascular accident
A stroke occurs when blood flow to the brain is interrupted by a blocked or burst blood vessel. There are two main types of stroke - ischemic, caused by a clot blocking a vessel, and hemorrhagic, caused by a ruptured vessel. The goal of acute stroke treatment is to rapidly restore blood flow to the brain to rescue tissue at risk of further damage. Treatment depends on the type and severity of stroke, and may involve clot-busting drugs, blood thinners, surgery, or rehabilitation therapies to help recovery.
Preventing stroke
A stroke occurs when blood flow to the brain is disrupted, depriving brain cells of oxygen. There are two main types of stroke - one caused by a blockage cutting off blood flow, and one caused by bleeding in the brain. Symptoms depend on the affected brain region and may include weakness, vision issues, speech problems or headaches. Risk factors include age, sex, race, diabetes, prior stroke, high blood pressure, heart conditions, smoking and obesity. Controlling risk factors through lifestyle changes such as diet, exercise, not smoking and managing medical conditions can help prevent stroke.

Understanding ca aa stk
Joel P.D. presents on understanding the differences between a heart attack, cardiac arrest, and stroke. A cardiac arrest is an electrical disorder where the heart stops beating due to irregular electrical activity. A heart attack is a circulation disorder where blood flow to the heart is blocked, but the heart continues beating. A stroke is a brain disorder where a blood vessel supplying the brain is blocked or ruptures. The document outlines the symptoms of each condition to distinguish between them and stresses the importance of understanding their differences to seek proper treatment.
Cardiovascular diseases
A heart attack occurs when blood flow to the heart is blocked, damaging heart muscle. Common causes include family history, diet high in fat, lack of exercise, and stress. Treatment focuses on oxygen, pain relief, and blood thinners to open vessels. Preventing heart attacks involves a healthy diet, exercise, not smoking, and controlling cholesterol. Stroke is caused by blocked blood vessels in the brain and requires prompt treatment to avoid damage. High blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes and smoking increase stroke risk. Prevention focuses on managing these conditions. Angina is chest pain from reduced blood to the heart, often due to narrowed arteries. It is triggered by stress, temperatures, meals and smoking.

Cerebro vascular accident
A stroke occurs when blood flow to the brain is interrupted by a blocked or burst blood vessel. There are two main types of stroke - ischemic, caused by a clot blocking an artery, and hemorrhagic, caused by a ruptured blood vessel. Risk factors include high blood pressure, diabetes, smoking, obesity, and family history. Symptoms depend on the affected brain region but may include weakness, vision issues, and speech problems. Treatment focuses on rapidly restoring blood flow through clot-busting drugs or surgery, along with long-term rehabilitation and preventative measures.
Heart attack
A heart attack, also known as a myocardial infarction, occurs when blood flow to the heart is blocked, preventing the heart from receiving oxygen. This is usually due to a buildup of plaque in the coronary arteries over many years. Eventually, plaque can rupture inside an artery and cause a blood clot that blocks blood flow. If the blockage is not quickly treated, the portion of heart muscle begins to die. Risk factors include smoking, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obesity, and family history. Diagnostic tests include ECGs, blood tests, and coronary angiography. Treatment focuses on restoring blood flow through clot-busting drugs or angioplasty to open the blocked artery.
Cerebrovascular accident
This document provides an overview of cerebrovascular accident (CVA), also known as stroke. It begins with definitions of CVA and discusses the anatomy of blood supply to the brain. It then covers the epidemiology, causes, risk factors, types, pathophysiology, clinical features, diagnosis, management, complications, prognosis, and rehabilitation of CVA. CVA is caused by interrupted blood flow to the brain, depriving it of oxygen and nutrients. The main causes are ischemia (blockage of an artery) and hemorrhage (bleeding). Risk factors include hypertension, diabetes, smoking, and high cholesterol. Treatment involves restoring blood flow, preventing further complications, and long-term rehabilitation. Prognosis depends on
Coronary heart disease
Coronary heart disease is caused by plaque buildup in the coronary arteries that supply blood to the heart. Over many years, plaque narrows the arteries and reduces blood flow. If plaque ruptures, a blood clot can block blood flow and cause a heart attack. A heart attack occurs when an area of the heart muscle dies from lack of oxygen-rich blood. Angina is chest pain that occurs when blood flow to the heart is reduced. Coronary heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States and lifestyle changes, medicines, and procedures can help prevent and treat it.

CONGENITAL HEART DISEASES PPT
There are several types of congenital heart diseases that result from defects in heart structure present at birth. Cyanotic heart diseases allow deoxygenated blood to circulate systemically, while acyanotic diseases allow blood shunting between the heart's left and right sides. Common defects include atrial and ventricular septal defects, patent ductus arteriosus, coarctation of the aorta, and aortic or pulmonary valve stenosis. Signs and symptoms vary depending on the type of defect. Treatment may involve medication, cardiac catheterization, surgery such as defect closure or valve replacement, or in severe cases heart transplantation. Nursing care focuses on managing symptoms, preventing infection, and addressing needs like nutrition and development.
Stroke (cva)
A stroke occurs when a blood vessel in the brain is blocked or ruptures, interrupting blood flow and oxygen to the brain. This causes brain cells to die. The main types of stroke are ischemic, caused by a clot blocking an artery, and hemorrhagic, caused by a ruptured blood vessel. Risk factors include hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, smoking, obesity, and head injuries. Symptoms include sudden numbness, weakness, confusion, trouble seeing or walking. Diagnosis involves CT scans, MRI, or lumbar puncture. Treatment includes medications, surgery, and rehabilitation to regain functions and prevent complications.

General Heart Diseases
There are several common heart diseases that are caused by an unhealthy lifestyle and lack of physical activity. Heart prickles can be caused by feeling cold, stress, anxiety, or an unhealthy diet and can be prevented by having a healthy lifestyle with exercise and a good diet. Congestive heart failure occurs when the heart cannot pump blood efficiently due to issues like narrowed arteries or high blood pressure, leaving the heart too weak to fill and pump properly, with symptoms like shortness of breath. Atherosclerosis is a buildup of plaque in the artery walls that can restrict blood flow and cause problems like chest pain if the plaque bursts, with causes including high blood pressure, high cholesterol, smoking, and diseases
Cerebrovascular accident
This document discusses cerebrovascular accidents (strokes). It provides details on three patient cases presenting with strokes and their assessments. It then covers the types of strokes, clinical manifestations, emergency management, nursing diagnoses and management, increasing intracranial pressure signs, and rehabilitation. The types of strokes are ischemic (80-84%), which can be thrombotic, lacunar or embolic, and hemorrhagic. Right hemisphere strokes can cause left-sided weakness while left hemisphere strokes can cause aphasia or language problems.
Heart disease
Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States. It occurs when plaque builds up in the arteries, narrowing them over time and reducing blood flow to the heart. Symptoms include chest pain or discomfort, pain in the jaw, neck or back, weakness, shortness of breath, and more. Treatment may include lifestyle changes like stopping smoking, a healthy diet, exercise, and medications, as well as medical procedures to relieve symptoms, widen arteries, and prevent complications. The goals are to relieve symptoms, reduce risk factors, lower the risk of blood clots, and prevent further issues.
Heart Attack
The document discusses heart attacks, including what they are, their causes, symptoms, and how to manage someone having a heart attack. A heart attack occurs when a coronary artery becomes blocked, starving part of the heart of oxygen. Common symptoms include chest pain or tightness, shortness of breath, and pale or sweaty skin. If someone is having a heart attack, it is important to call emergency services, keep the person comfortable, and provide first aid such as oxygen until help arrives.
CVA
The document provides information about protocols for treating patients exhibiting signs of an acute stroke or CVA. It outlines assessments and tests to determine if a patient is having a stroke, including the Cincinnati Pre-hospital Stroke Scale (CPSS) and Rapid Arterial Occlusion Evaluation (RACE). It describes treating potential underlying causes of stroke symptoms like hypoglycemia. It also notes the differences between primary and comprehensive stroke centers in terms of capabilities for treating patients.
Cerebrovascular accident
Cerebrovascular accident refers to a stroke, which occurs when blood flow to the brain is interrupted. The document discusses the causes, types, symptoms, risk factors, and diagnostic evaluation of strokes. It also summarizes hypertension, myocardial infarction, and coronary artery disease - all of which can increase the risk of strokes if not properly managed.
Coronary Heart Disease
Coronary heart disease is caused by a buildup of fatty plaque in the arteries that supply the heart, limiting blood flow. Over time, this narrowing can completely block an artery and cause a heart attack. The main risk factors for coronary heart disease include family history, diabetes, high blood pressure, abnormal cholesterol levels, smoking, and lack of exercise. Symptoms may include chest pain or discomfort that worsens with exertion. Diagnosis involves tests like electrocardiograms, stress tests, and angiography. Treatment focuses on lifestyle changes, medications, procedures like angioplasty and bypass surgery, and controlling risk factors.

Symptoms of stroke depend on the affected brain region and may include weakness, numbness, vision issues, and speech problems. Diagnosis involves CT/MRI imaging, ECG, and blood tests. Treatment focuses on rapidly restoring blood flow through clot-busting drugs or surgery. Long-term care aims to recover function and prevent future strokes through rehabilitation and risk factor management.
Stroke/types/risk factors/recognition of stroke
Stroke is a type of cardiovascular disease.
It affects the arteries leading to and within the
brain. A stroke occurs when a blood vessel
that carries oxygen and nutrients to the brain
is either blocked by a clot or bursts. When
that happens, part of the brain cannot get the
blood and oxygen it needs, so it starts to die.

A stroke occurs when blood flow to the brain is interrupted, depriving brain cells of oxygen and causing them to die. The effects of a stroke depend on which part of the brain is injured. Strokes can cause temporary or permanent disabilities. There are two main types of stroke - ischemic, caused by a clot blocking an artery, and hemorrhagic, caused by a burst blood vessel. Risk factors include high blood pressure, smoking, obesity, and older age. Prevention efforts focus on controlling risk factors through a healthy lifestyle and medications.

STROKE PRESENTATION NOTES IN POWERPOINT.
Strokes occur when blood flow to the brain is interrupted, either by a blockage or rupture of a blood vessel in the brain. There are three main types of strokes: transient ischemic attacks, ischemic strokes caused by blood clots, and hemorrhagic strokes caused by ruptured blood vessels. Signs of a stroke include muscular weakness, visual problems, speech difficulties, and headaches. Diagnostic tests include CT scans, MRI scans, and echocardiograms. Stroke treatment focuses on restoring blood flow, controlling risk factors, and rehabilitation to aid recovery.
Types of stroke and its prevention .pptx
There are two main types of strokes: ischemic and hemorrhagic. Ischemic strokes occur when a blood clot blocks an artery in the brain, while hemorrhagic strokes occur when a blood vessel in the brain bursts, causing bleeding. Symptoms of a stroke can include numbness or weakness on one side of the body, trouble speaking or understanding speech, vision problems, and trouble walking. Diagnosis involves imaging tests like CT scans and MRI to determine if bleeding has occurred in the brain or if brain cells have been damaged. Treatment focuses on preventing future strokes through medications like antiplatelets, anticoagulants, and statins, as well as managing risk factors.
Stroke.ppt
Stroke is a type of cardiovascular disease that occurs when a blood vessel in the brain is blocked by a clot or bursts, causing the brain tissue to die. The most common type of stroke is ischemic stroke, which accounts for over 80% of strokes and is caused by lack of blood flow to the brain. Risk factors for stroke include increasing age, prior stroke, high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, tobacco use, physical inactivity, obesity, atrial fibrillation, and heredity. Knowing your risk factors is key to prevention, as some like high blood pressure, diabetes, and high cholesterol can be treated or controlled.

neurological disoder and sign symptoms causes
The document discusses neurological disorders and provides details about cerebrovascular accidents (strokes). It describes the blood supply to the brain from arteries like the internal carotid and vertebral arteries. There are two main types of strokes - ischemic caused by blockage and hemorrhagic caused by bleeding. Symptoms can include weakness, difficulty speaking, and vision issues. Diagnosis involves scans and tests of the blood. Treatment depends on the type but may include clot-busting drugs or surgery. Lifestyle changes can help prevent strokes by maintaining healthy blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
Heart Attack
A heart attack occurs when a coronary artery becomes blocked, preventing blood and oxygen from reaching the heart muscle. Over time, fatty deposits can build up in the arteries and eventually rupture, forming a clot that causes a complete blockage. Common symptoms of a heart attack include chest pain or discomfort that may spread to the arms, shoulders, neck or jaw. Treatment focuses on quickly restoring blood flow through clot-busting drugs, angioplasty, stents or bypass surgery. Lifestyle changes and cardiac rehabilitation are important for recovery.
Brain Attackdefinitionandidofstrokepresentaiton
The document defines stroke and provides statistics about its prevalence. It discusses the two main types of strokes - ischemic and hemorrhagic - and their causes. Transient ischemic attacks are described as temporary stroke-like symptoms. Risk factors for stroke are outlined such as age, high blood pressure, smoking, diabetes and family history. Signs and symptoms of stroke are listed. The importance of rapid treatment is stressed as time lost can cause greater brain damage.

Groups Experiencing Inequities
The key priority issues for improving Australia's health are reducing health inequities faced by certain groups. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders, socioeconomically disadvantaged people, rural/remote residents, and immigrants experience unfair health differences. They are more likely to die younger, have lower life expectancy and quality of life, higher rates of disease, and less access to healthcare and health information. Addressing the social and economic determinants of health through government programs, community support, and empowering individuals is needed to improve health equity across all Australians.
Assessment for learning
The document discusses using assessment for learning (formative assessment) to improve student learning culture and academic achievement. It recommends focusing on assessment for learning in the upcoming year by incorporating self-assessment and reflection activities into formal tasks to promote student responsibility for learning and boost outcomes, especially for lower and middle ability students. Research shows significant learning gains can result from this approach.

Powerpoint Sole Parents
Sole parent families face significant challenges in meeting their needs for financial support, access to services, security and safety, employment, housing, and other resources. The ability of sole parents to access resources is influenced by their gender, socioeconomic status, location, and other demographic factors. Women heading sole parent families in particular struggle due to lower incomes and challenges balancing work and parenting responsibilities alone. Location also greatly impacts access to resources, with rural sole parents facing greater difficulties.
Y O U T H
This newspaper article discusses findings from a survey of 600 Australian youth aged 10-17 that show declining rates of drug and alcohol use and fewer youth having sex at younger ages. Specifically, the survey found marijuana use decreased from 36% to 23% from 2003 to 2007, while cigarette smoking declined slightly. Fewer youth were sexually active before age 16, down from over three-quarters to less than two-thirds. Members of a NSW Youth Advisory Council attribute the trends to increased education and awareness, allowing youth to make more informed decisions about their health and relationships.
HGH
1. The growth hormone is produced by the pituitary gland in the brain and stimulates the growth of muscle, cartilage, and bone.
2. Sports like weightlifting and baseball where short bursts of power and strength are important are more likely to use HGH, as it increases muscle size and allows muscles to recover faster, enabling more training.
3. HGH was first banned from sports by the International Olympic Committee in 1989.
EPO
EPO is a performance-enhancing drug that stimulates red blood cell creation, increasing oxygen levels in the body. It allows athletes in endurance sports like cycling and running to maintain steady breathing and not slow down or stop during long distance events. While originally developed to treat medical conditions causing anemia, athletes use EPO to enhance performance and chances of winning. However, EPO is dangerous as it raises hematocrit levels, thickening the blood and risking strokes, heart attacks, and clogged capillaries.
Beta Blockers
Beta blockers are drugs that block nerve impulses and reduce heart rate and force. They are used to treat conditions like high blood pressure but are also used in precision sports to improve performance by steadying nerves and improving accuracy. Common side effects include dizziness, drowsiness, and breathing problems. Beta blockers are most commonly used in gymnastics, diving, ski jumping, soccer, wrestling, shooting and archery because they help athletes remain focused and in control by reducing heart rate.
Blood Doping
Blood doping is a procedure that increases the number of red blood cells in the body to enhance athletic performance and endurance. It works by allowing more oxygen to be carried to the muscles. Potential side effects include kidney damage, blood infections, heart problems, blood clots, and jaundice. Blood doping is mainly used in long distance endurance events like long distance running and cross country skiing to help athletes maintain performance for longer periods.
Steroids
Steroids are a class of hormones related to testosterone that build muscle by increasing protein synthesis. They are commonly used by athletes to improve performance in sports like weightlifting, baseball, cycling, and football, but long-term use can have serious health risks such as infertility, enlarged heart, high blood pressure, liver damage, and aggression. Cycling involves taking high steroid doses for several weeks and then discontinuing use for several weeks or months.
Bruises
The document summarizes different types of injuries including bruises, abrasions, incisions, lacerations, avulsions, puncture wounds, and embedded objects. For each injury type, it describes the signs, symptoms, and initial first aid management which generally involves stopping bleeding, cleaning the wound, applying pressure and elevation, immobilizing the injured area, reassuring the patient, and seeking further medical help if needed.
Tooth Injuries
Tooth injuries can occur from falls, accidents, and other incidents, causing teeth to chip, crack, become partially dislodged, or removed from the socket entirely. Signs of injuries include visible damage, tooth discoloration after a concussion, and pain when tapped. Fractures may cause sensitivity to hot/cold and increased pain. Management depends on the injury - avulsed teeth should be gently cleaned and replaced in the socket if possible, or stored in liquid; chipped teeth fragments should be saved and the patient seen by a dentist; and loosened or displaced teeth should be stabilized in the proper position with a splint or pressure until dental care can be received.
Eye Injuries
Eye injuries can occur from direct trauma, chemical contamination, infection, allergies, or other medical conditions. Some common signs of eye injuries include pain, redness, blurred vision, swelling and watering. The treatment for an eye injury depends on its cause but generally involves flushing the injured eye with water and seeking immediate medical attention to prevent further damage.
Epilepsy
This document provides an overview of epilepsy, including signs and symptoms, what causes it, and how it is managed. Epilepsy is a common neurological condition where the normal electrical activity in the brain is disrupted, causing seizures. There are two main types of seizures - partial seizures where the seizure activity starts in one area of the brain, and generalized seizures where the seizure activity involves the whole brain. Management strategies include medication, lifestyle changes, and first aid response during seizures.
Heat Exhaustion
This document summarizes first aid procedures for heat exhaustion, heatstroke, hypothermia, and frostbite. It outlines signs and symptoms of each condition and provides guidance on first aid management. For heat illnesses like heat exhaustion and heatstroke, first aid includes removing the person from heat, cooling their body, and providing fluids. For hypothermia, treatment ranges from removing wet clothing and adding dry layers for mild cases to calling emergency services and performing CPR if needed for severe cases. Frostbite treatment involves gently warming affected areas and seeking medical help.
Fractures
The document discusses different types of fractures including simple, compound, complicated, and greenstick fractures. It describes the causes and signs of fractures and provides guidance on first aid management including immobilization, splinting, and control of bleeding depending on the fracture type. Compound fractures which break the skin pose greater risks and require prompt medical assistance. Circulation, sensation, and shock should be monitored for all fracture types.
Fractures
A bone fracture is a complete or incomplete break in a bone caused by excessive force. Fractures can be open, where the broken bone pierces the skin, or closed, where the skin is intact. Complicated fractures damage underlying organs. Signs of a fracture include pain, difficulty moving, swelling, deformity, grating sounds, shock, and tenderness near the site. For responsive casualties, fractures should be splinted if possible and the casualty kept comfortable until emergency help arrives. For unresponsive casualties, call for an ambulance and place the casualty in the recovery position while monitoring vital signs until help arrives.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.Cosmetology and Trichology Courses at Kosmoderma Academy PRP (Hair), DR Growt...

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
