Hjerneslag

Et hjerneslag skyldes i de fleste tilfeller en blodpropp i hjernen. Tidlig behandling er helt avgjørende for prognosen. Er det hjerneslag? sjekk: - PRATE - SMILE - LØFTE

Hva er hjerneslag?

Hjerneslag (apopleksi) er plutselig innsettende tap av kroppsfunksjoner på grunn av forstyrrelser i hjernens blodsirkulasjon. Blodpropp i blodårer i hjernen (trombose) er årsaken i 80-85 prosent av tilfellene, mens hjerneblødning er årsak i 10-15 prosent av tilfellene. Går symptomene tilbake i løpet av mindre enn 24 timer, kalles det transitorisk iskemisk atakk, TIA - på norsk brukes betegnelsen "drypp". De fleste TIA varer under en time.

Typisk for hjerneslag er at symptomene kommer raskt. 90% av alle slagpasienter har ett eller flere av følgende symptomer:

PRATE - utydelig tale, leting etter ord
SMILE - skjevt smil på grunn av lammelse i ansiktsnerven (facialis-nerven)
LØFTE - klarer ikke løfte begge armene likt/symmetrisk over hodet

Dersom det foreligger ett eller flere av symptomene anbefales å ringe 113 for rask innleggelse i sykehus
