STROKE
Recognize & Respond
Stroke is a medical emergency that can strike anyone.
EVERY MINUTE MATTERS.
Know these w arning signs of stroke and teach them to others.
•
•
•
•
•
Sudden num bness or w eakness of the face, arm or leg, especially on one side of the body
S udden confusion, trouble speaking or understanding
S udden trouble seeing in one or both eyes
Sudden trouble walking, dizziness, loss of balance or coordination
S udden, severe h eadach e with no known cause
In the past, doctors couldn't do much to help stroke victims.
That's not true today.
N ow stroke doesn 't have to lead to disability or death...
...IF you recognize a stroke and get to the hospital im m ediately.
The clot-dissolving drug tPA can reduce disability if it's given within three hours after an ischemic
stroke starts. (Ischem ic strokes are caused by clots and are by far the m ost com m on type of stroke.)
Unfortunately, tPA isn't used as often as it could be because m any people do n 't seek care quickly.
D o n 't m ake that m istake. If you or som eone near you has any w arning signs of a stroke,
call 9 -1 -1 im m ediately!
Call 9-1-1 at the first sign of stroke.
TIME LOST IS BRAIN LOST.
Your area responders are trained to get you the best and fastest care possible.
Calling 9 -1 -1 connects you to a stroke team that can get the treatm ent you need. It’s a no-brainer!
