About
Stroke
Stroke, a leading cause of death and disability worldwide, is closely linked to atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and other cardiovascular conditions. Strokes are broadly classified as ischemic, caused by blood clots obstructing cerebral blood flow, or hemorrhagic, resulting from ruptured blood vessels in the brain.
Nurses play a vital role in stroke prevention, acute management, and rehabilitation by understanding the intricate connections between stroke, ASCVD, and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Through this understanding, nurses are empowered to provide comprehensive care that addresses both prevention and recovery, ultimately improving quality of life and reducing the burden of cardiovascular disease.
