Stroke - Transient Ischaemic Attack

You are in: Health24 : Medical : Condition centres : Stroke > Transient Ischaemic Attack

Symptoms of TIA
TIA symptoms, which usually occur suddenly, are similar to those of stroke but do not last as long.

Treatment of TIA
Because there is no way to tell whether symptoms are from a TIA or an acute stroke, patients should assume that all stroke-like symptoms signal an emergency.

Description of TIA
TIA occurs when the blood supply to part of the brain is briefly interrupted.
