Brain Attack
brain attack
A term proposed by the National Stroke Association for the sudden loss of neurological function that constitutes a stroke. The term is meant to be similar to “heart attack” in order to convey the emergent nature of strokes and the need for affected patients to seek care immediately when treatment may do the most good.
