Neurology and Stroke Care at Astra
Our Neurology Department assesses and treats disorders of the brain, spinal cord, nerves and muscles - including headache and migraine, epilepsy, stroke, Parkinson's disease, neuropathy and memory disorders. Stroke is time-critical: if you recognise the signs below, come to emergency immediately.
Recognising a Stroke - Act FAST
F - Face. Ask the person to smile. Has one side of the face drooped? A - Arms. Ask them to raise both arms. Does one drift downwards? S - Speech. Ask them to repeat a simple sentence. Is speech slurred, jumbled or absent? T - Time. If any of these are present, call +91 96771 11775 and come immediately. Note the time symptoms began.
Do not wait to see whether it passes. Symptoms that resolve within minutes may have been a transient ischaemic attack - a warning stroke - which needs urgent assessment. Do not give food, drink or medication to someone with suspected stroke.
