Stroke, its risk factors, clinical manifestations
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 and the brain cells die. The major risk factors for stroke include: high blood pressure, diabetes, heart and blood vessels diseases, high LDL cholesterol levels, and smoking. The best way to help prevent a stroke is to eat healthy diet, exercise regularly, and avoid smoking and drinking too much alcohol. All nursing staff have important roles and responsibilities when caring for people with stroke. These include: physiological monitoring and maintenance of homeostasis, and preventing and detecting lesion extension and cerebral oedema. [Welsh Government, 2018, Stroke Delivery Plan].
