People suffering a brain stroke will have a chance of getting better result as soon as the patient reaches the stroke center after the onset of symptoms. Delaying every one hour before initiation of treatment significantly reduces the chance of a good result by 30 per cent, senior neurologists in an
awareness program on brain strokes organised by Yashoda Hospitals, Secunderabad on Tuesday said.
Neurologists in the awareness program, organised to mark the occasion of World Stroke Day on Tuesday, urged family members to ensure the stroke patients reach a stroke centre at the earliest.
