What should be done if you suspect you or someone else is having a stroke? 禄?

First of all I know a stroke is the sudden death of brain cells due to a problem with the blood supply. When blood flow to the brain is impaired, oxygen and important nutrients cannot be delivered.

But.. I need to know what I need to do if I suspect someone else or myself is having a stroke the reason is because I know a girl who was lying on the fall and nobody knew what was happening to her it was really sudden then when they took her to the hospital she suffered a severe brain hermorage which was because og the stroke

Thanks to anyone who contributes...x

If you suspect someone is having a stroke, the most important thing is to get them to the hospital. Thrombolytics, which are clot busters, can only be given within three hours of the stroke happening, and that is such a small amount of time, that the sooner you get them there, the better chance of a recovery.
Also, don't allow the patient to eat or drink anything, keep them warm, and pay close attention to the affected side. If the patient can't feel their affected side, they can't tell whether you've got something digging into them, cutting off their circulation, or if they are cold.

There are two kinds of strokes. The one that you are describing is due to a blood clot. The one that happened to the girl you saw was a hemmhoragic stroke. This is due to an aneurysm (an artery in the brain bursting). In either case there is nothing you can do short of calling 911 and getting help immediately. There is a much better chance of recovery from a stroke due to a blockage.

The number one thing you should do if you suspect a stroke is to call 911! If you experience slurred speach, numbness and tingling in extremities and facial drooping, you possibly are having a stroke. Age is also a factor and so is medical history. Be prompt...there is a 3 hour window for stroke. If you make it to the approiate hospital in time they may be able to get you a thrombolytic or a clot buster to deter any damage.

First: Make the call to 911 as quickly as possible.
Secondly:
-Ask the person to touch their index finger to their nose.
-Ask the person very simple questions that they should know the answer to, such as:
What is your name?
How old are you?
What is your phone number?
What is your Mother's name?
What is your favorite color?
(Most commonly if NOT a stroke, the person should easily be able to answer and do all of the above.)

You need to call 911 and get them to a hospital right away. The faster you get them there the faster they can get help.
An aneurysm isn't really a stroke it is a brain bleed, and little can be done except surgery.
Dont ignore the signs and symptoms of stroke. Get help.

call 911 its simple
