A stroke occurs when one or more blood vessels supplying oxygen to the brain are damaged or blocked. If this condition lasts more than 3 minutes, brain cells begin to die.
Dr. Sabrina Stefanizzi, Department of Neurology, Hanoi French Hospital, with more than 20 years of experience in stroke prevention and treatment, says that Vietnam has a high stroke rate, which is a major concern.
There are two types of strokes: hemorrhagic, caused by a ruptured artery, and ischemic (blocked artery). If stroke patients are not treated promptly, they can fall into a coma and even die.
According to Dr. Nguyen Van Mui, an Endocrinologist with over 20 years of experience at HFH: "Stroke or cerebrovascular accident is a dangerous complication and the leading cause of death in people with diabetes. The risk of stroke in people with type 2 diabetes increases 2 to 4 -fold compared to others.
However, the main risk factors for stroke are modifiable, and primary prevention is the most effective way to prevent it.
