Life With Nayab A stroke, also known as a cerebrovascular accident (CVA), is a medical emergency that occurs when there is a sudden disruption of blood flow to the brain. This disruption can lead to brain cell death and may result in permanent brain damage, disability, or even death, depending on the severity and the area of the brain affected. Strokes are classified into two main types: ischemic and hemorrhagic, with a third rare type known as a transient ischemic attack (TIA), often called a "mini-stroke.".
