Dave, thanks for the clarification. The only thing I'd read was stroke, although an IS considered to be a type of stroke.:
Hemorrhagic stroke
"Hemorrhage" is the medical word for bleeding. Hemorrhagic stroke occurs when a blood vessel in your brain leaks or ruptures. Hemorrhages can result from a number of conditions that affect your blood vessels, including uncontrolled high blood pressure (hypertension) and weak spots in your blood vessel walls (aneurysms). A less common cause of hemorrhage is the rupture of an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) — a malformed tangle of thin-walled blood vessels, present at birth. There are two types of hemorrhagic stroke:

Intracerebral hemorrhage. In this type of stroke, a blood vessel in the brain bursts and spills into the surrounding brain tissue, damaging cells. Brain cells beyond the leak are deprived of blood and are also damaged. High blood pressure is the most common cause of this type of hemorrhagic stroke. High blood pressure can cause small arteries inside your brain to become brittle and susceptible to cracking and rupture. "

thanks boom, during my moms last stroke it was blamed on a clot. the more common cause of strokes, loss of blood flow, an aneurysm is obvious bleeding into the cranial cavity. im not going to split hairs over terminology. my mom is still alive! lets be thankful for that.

BoomerD · 09-29-2006, 10:48 PM
