Prevention of transient ischemic attack

Prevention of transient ischemic attack refers to therapeutic interventions designed to avert brief episodes of temporary focal neurological dysfunction in individuals at high risk for cerebrovascular events Clinically defined by reversible neurological deficits, such as unilateral motor weakness, sensory changes, or language impairment that resolve without evidence of acute infarction on neuroimaging, prevention targets the vascular system to halt progressive cerebral ischemia and diminish the ...
