Stroke ... Explained (a presentation from the National Stroke Association)

Understanding the medical side of stroke and prevention can be overwhelming, which is why National Stroke Association created our latest iHOPE Web presentation called Stroke…Explained. Watch it now!

Stroke…Explained discusses important medical aspects of stroke at the patient level. Topic expert Andrew D. Barreto, MD, goes into detail about how stroke occurs in the body, warning signs, how to prevent a primary and secondary stroke through risk factor management and treatments for stroke.


About iHOPE  

Over the past year, stroke survivors and caregivers have told us that they yearn for online resources to help with their stroke recovery. National Stroke Association has embraced this need and focused on creating tools that are easily accessible and convenient for you – from the comfort of your personal computer.

iHOPE is a series of Web presentations and "Ask the Experts" Q&A sessions that cover topics such as depression after stroke, how to deal with different types of pain and mobility problems and the importance of self-care for caregivers. It allows you to learn at your own pace and access information about stroke information specific to your personal needs. The goals are to provide inspiration, knowledge and hope to your recovery experience.
