Conditions

Acute ischemic stroke, also known as cerebral infarction, is a neurological disorder caused by the sudden blockage of a cerebral blood vessel, leading to ischemia, hypoxia, and subsequent necrosis of brain tissue. It is the most common type of stroke, accounting for approximately 75% to 80% of all cases. Characterized by high incidence, high disability rate, and high mortality, it is one of the le

Interventions
