The ischemic stroke means that there is lack of blood flow (due to a clot) to part of the brain causing that part to lose cells. The hemorrhagic stroke occurs when a blood vessel breaks and it causes bleeding. About 90% are ischemic strokes.
In the second type, oxygen- and nutrient-rich blood is prevented from reaching the brain cells beyond the point of rupture. In addition, leaked blood can irritate and harm the brain cells in the areas where it accumulates. This can make this type more deadly.

What are two ways that a Cerebrovascular Accident can occur?
A stroke can occur in two ways. In an ischemic stroke, a blood clot blocks or plugs a blood vessel or artery in the brain. About 80 percent of all strokes are ischemic. In an hemorrhagic stroke, a blood vessel in the brain breaks and bleeds into the brain. About 20 percent of strokes are hemorrhagic.
How are the various types of stroke distinguished?
A stroke can be either ischemic, which is an interruption of blood flow in a narrowed carotid artery, or hemorrhagic, which involves bleeding in the brain.

What are the 2 different types of stroke?
There are two major kinds of stroke, ischemic and hemorrhagic. In an ischemic stroke a blood vessel becomes blocked, usually by a blood clot and a portion of the brain becomes deprived of oxygen and will stop functioning. A hemorrhagic stroke occurs when a blood vessel that carries oxygen and nutrients to the brain burst and spills blood into the brain. When this happens, a portion of the brain becomes deprived of oxygen and will stop functioning.

Cite another name for transient ischemic attack?
Another name for a transient ischemic attack is a mini stroke.
What is the sudden death of a brain cell when their blood supply is interrupted is called?
The sudden death of a brain cell when its blood supply is interrupted is called a stroke. Strokes can result from either a blockage of blood flow (ischemic stroke) or bleeding in the brain (hemorrhagic stroke), leading to brain cell damage and potentially permanent neurological deficits.
What is meaning of the medical term know as hemorrhagic stroke?
The meaning of the term hemorrhagic stroke is when bleeding with in the brain occurs, which often damages, nearby brain tissue. One should see a doctor because hemorrhagic stroke is life threatening.
Which is the most common type of stroke in older people?
ischemic stroke
How many types of strokes are there?
There are three main types of strokes: ischemic, hemorrhagic, and transient ischemic attack (TIA). Ischemic strokes occur when a blood clot blocks blood flow to the brain, while hemorrhagic strokes happen when a blood vessel ruptures, causing bleeding in or around the brain. TIAs, often called "mini-strokes," are temporary interruptions of blood flow that typically last only a few minutes but can indicate a higher risk of a future stroke. Each type requires different treatments and response strategies.
Is mild hemorrhagic stroke considered as wounds?
No
