Cerebral Ischemia
Cerebral ischemia is a condition characterized by insufficient blood flow to the brain, leading to inadequate oxygen and nutrient supply. This deprivation can result in neuronal damage or death, manifesting as a range of neurological deficits. It can be focal, affecting a specific brain region (e.g., ischemic stroke), or global, impacting the entire brain (e.g., cardiac arrest). Prompt diagnosis and intervention are crucial to minimize irreversible brain injury and improve patient outcomes.
