A cerebrovascular accident (CVA), commonly known as a stroke, occurs when the blood supply to a part of the brain is interrupted, leading to the death of brain tissue. This may happen due to a blockage from a blood clot (ischemic stroke) or a rupture of a blood vessel (hemorrhagic stroke). Quick medical intervention is crucial to minimize brain damage and improve recovery outcomes. In real-world scenarios, recognizing the signs of a stroke can be life-saving.
