If you suspect someone or you have signs of a stroke, call an ambulance immediately. The worst thing in this situation is to wait for the symptoms to go away on their own, because the ability to provide effective care and restore blood supply to the brain lasts only 4.5-6 hours, after which areas of the brain that do not receive blood die.
Extremely It is important that the ambulance you call takes the patient with a suspected stroke to a specialized unit such as the Amulet, where the doctor can take all the necessary steps - examine the patient, perform a series of diagnostic tests to determine the type of stroke (ischemic or hemorrhagic) and perform a computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging of the head, without which it is impossible to see what is happening in the brain and prescribe the right treatment.
