A stroke, also known as a CVA (cerebrovascular accident), is a life-threatening event in which the brain’s oxygen supply has been cut off causing problems with such functions as speech, sensation, behavior, memory, and thought processes. A stroke may also result in paralysis, coma, and even death.
Stroke is the third leading cause of death in the United States and the second leading cause of neurological disability after Alzheimer’s disease.
