It is known that cerebral infarction, the disease that causes the actress to pass away forever, also known as ischemic stroke, is a cerebral infarction that occurs due to interrupted bloo.d flo.w to the brain due to problems with the bloo.d vessels that supply bloo.d to the brain. The lack of adequate bloo.d supply to brain cells leaves them deprived of oxygen and important nutrients, which can cause parts of the brain to die.
Cerebral infarction accounts for about 80% of cerebral strokes, the remaining 20% are cerebral hemorrhages and subarachnoid hemorrhages. The annual incidence of cerebral infarction is relatively high, about 130/100,000 people/year.
Regarding the cause of this condition, experts believe that the reduced bloo.d supply to the brain is caused by atherosclerosis, which leads to the formation of fatty plaque in bloo.d vessels called atherosclerosis. This fatty plaque can cause bloo.d clots or bloo.d clots in the arteries that supply bloo.d to the brain or in another part of the body, in which case the bloo.d clot is called an embolism. A piece of this bloo.d clot can burst and travel to the bloo.d vessels in the brain, where it stays and forms a cerebral embolism.
Embolism can also be caused by atrial fibrillation, which can cause a bloo.d clot to form in the heart, which then peels off and travels to the bloo.d vessels in the brain through the bloodstream.
People with high bloo.d cholesterol and high bloo.d pressure have a higher risk of cerebral infarction. Other risk factors include smoking, obesity, a family history of heart disease, diabetes, and excessive alcohol consumption.
According to Vinmec International Hospital, when seeing a patient with FAST symptoms (English): distorted mouth, weak limbs, voice changes, it is necessary to go to the hospital immediately.
Some other warning symptoms of stroke such as dizziness, headache, weakness of limbs, slurred speech, coma, seizures... When seeing these signs, it is necessary to take the patient to the hospital as soon as possible for treatment. Because if the 'golden time' of treatment is exceeded, the patient may be severely disabled if not treated in time, even deat.h.
How to prevent stroke in general and cerebral infarction in particular
According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), many strokes can be prevented by making healthy lifestyle changes and coordinating with the healthcare team to manage health conditions that increase the risk of stroke. Concrete:
- Choose healthy foods and drinks: Be sure to eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. Eating foods low in saturated fat, trans fat, and cholesterol and high in fiber can help prevent high cholesterol. Limiting salt (sodium) in your diet can also lower bloo.d pressure. High cholesterol and high bloo.d pressure increase the risk of stroke.
- Maintain a healthy weight: Being overweight or obese increases the risk of stroke. To determine if your weight is within the healthy range, your doctor usually calculates your body mass index (BMI).
- Exercise regularly: Physical activity can help you maintain a healthy weight and lower cholesterol and bloo.d pressure levels. For adults, general surgeons recommend spending 2 hours and 30 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic physical activity, such as brisk walking, each week. Children and adolescents should spend 1 hour of physical activity per day.
- Do not smoke, limit alcohol intake: Smoking significantly increases the risk of stroke. If you don't smoke, don't try it. If you smoke, quitting right away will help reduce your risk of stroke. Avoid drinking too much alcohol, as it can increase bloo.d pressure. Men should not drink more than two drinks a day, and women should not drink more than one drink a day.
- Control your own medical conditions, especially cholesterol, bloo.d pressure, diabetes and heart disease.
