    The review addresses the peculiarities of etiology and pathogenesis of stroke in women. The most important and even unique risk factors for stroke, their prevalence and mechanisms of action are presented. Etiology, pathogenesis, clinical symptoms, diagnosis and treatment of the factors and states are described. Presented are also some features of diagnosis and treatment of the states that cause disturbances of blood circulation during pregnancy such as cerebral venous thrombosis, cerebral arterial occlusion, subarachnoid haemorrhage, paradoxic cerebral emboli, eclampsia. An essential part of the report is devoted to pathogenetic relations between stroke and usage of oral contraceptives, postmenopausal hormonal changes, migraine, vascular disorders of primary inflammation genesis, fibrous and muscle dysplasia, mitral valve prolapse.

    Ischemic Stroke l: Introduction01:15

    Ischemic Stroke l: Introduction

    Ischemic stroke is an acute cerebrovascular condition in which blood flow to a brain region is suddenly interrupted, leading to tissue infarction. Neurons depend on continuous oxygen and glucose supply, so even brief reductions in perfusion cause energy failure, ionic imbalance, and irreversible injury. Ischemic strokes are classified into thrombotic and embolic types based on their underlying mechanisms.Thrombotic MechanismsThrombotic stroke develops when a clot forms within a cerebral artery.
    Ischemic Stroke ll: Pathophysiology01:15

    Ischemic Stroke ll: Pathophysiology

    An ischemic stroke occurs when a cerebral blood vessel becomes obstructed, most often by a thrombus or embolus, interrupting the delivery of oxygen and glucose to brain tissue. Because neurons rely on continuous aerobic metabolism, energy failure begins within minutes of reduced perfusion. The region receiving the least blood flow becomes the infarct core, an area of irreversible cellular death. Surrounding this core lies the penumbra, a zone of hypoperfused but still viable tissue that is...

    Stroke: Introduction and Types

    A stroke is an acute neurological event caused by the sudden disruption of cerebral blood flow, leading to rapid loss of neuronal function. Neurons depend on continuous oxygen and glucose supply, so even brief interruptions can cause irreversible injury within minutes. Strokes are classified into ischemic and hemorrhagic types.Ischemic StrokeIschemic strokes are most common and occur due to arterial occlusion, depriving brain tissue of oxygen and nutrients. This leads to energy failure, ionic...
    Hemorrhagic Stroke ll: Pathophysiology01:29

    Hemorrhagic Stroke ll: Pathophysiology

    A hemorrhagic stroke develops when a cerebral blood vessel ruptures, allowing blood to escape into the surrounding brain tissue, as in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), or into the subarachnoid space, as in subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Because the skull is a rigid compartment, the sudden presence of extravascular blood rapidly increases intracranial pressure and compresses adjacent neural structures, leading to immediate tissue injury and impaired cerebral perfusion.Mass Effect and Primary...
    Hemorrhagic Stroke l: Introduction01:17

    Hemorrhagic Stroke l: Introduction

    A hemorrhagic stroke is an acute neurological event that occurs when a weakened cerebral blood vessel ruptures, allowing blood to accumulate within or around the brain. The sudden release of blood forms a focal hematoma that increases intracranial pressure, displaces neural tissue, and can obstruct cerebrospinal fluid pathways. These effects may be compounded by intraventricular extension of the hemorrhage, cerebral edema, or compression of adjacent structures, all of which contribute to...

    Atherosclerosis IV: Nursing Management

    Nursing management for a patient with arteriosclerosis involves a comprehensive approach focusing on lifestyle modification, disease monitoring, education, and symptomatic care. Here is an overview of effective nursing strategies:Assessment and Monitoring: Initial and ongoing assessments are crucial. Nurses must document the patient's medical history, including any hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and other cardiovascular diseases. Assessments also cover family history and lifestyle...
