Post-Stroke Advanced Stroke Rehab in Bangalore

Stroke is a medical emergency characterized by the sudden disruption of blood flow to the brain. The resulting damage to brain cells can lead to a wide range of symptoms and consequences ranging from physical disability to cognitive impairment. At Plexus Bangalore, we follow a multidisciplinary approach to treat post-stroke complications.

Types of Strokes

Ischemic Stroke

01Ischemic Stroke

It is the most common type of stroke, accounting for about 85% of all cases. Cause: Occurs when a blood clot or plaque buildup narrows or blocks an artery supplying blood to the brain.

Hemorrhagic Stroke

02Hemorrhagic Stroke

Cause: Occurs when a blood vessel in the brain ruptures, leading to bleeding into the brain tissue. The bleeding can damage brain cells and increase pressure within the skull.

Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA)

03Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA)

It is often referred to as a mini-stroke. Cause: Occurs when there is a temporary disruption of blood flow to the brain. TIAs do not cause permanent brain damage. They serve as a warning sign that a more severe stroke may occur in the future.

Cryptogenic Stroke

04Cryptogenic Stroke

It presents as a sudden onset of typical stroke symptoms, necessitating immediate medical attention.

Causes of Sensory Processing Disorder

It is not clear yet what exactly causes sensory issues in children. While some researchers believe that it may be connected to the way the sensory pathways in the brain process and organize information.

While it is also unclear if sensory issues can occur on their own or if they are caused by another disorder. Some doctors and healthcare professionals believe sensory processing issues are a symptom of another issue rather than a diagnosis in itself.
