1 Understanding StrokeBrain Anatomy and Cerebral Circulation Revised June 2007 Cathy Corrigan-Lauzon HRSRH Enhanced District Stroke Program

Slide 2 :

2 What is a Stroke? “Stroke” is a term used to describe neurological changes lasting more than 24 hours caused by an interruption in the blood supply to a part of the brain. If the blood flow ceases for an extended period of time, the cerebral tissues involved die causing permanent neurological deficits.

Slide 3 :

3 Cerebral Circulation Review Brain derives its arterial supply from carotid and vertebral arteries Carotid and vertebral arteries begin extracranially Internal carotid arteries and branches supply anterior 2/3 of cerebral hemispheres Vertebral and basilar arteries supply posterior and medial regions of hemispheres, brainstem, cerebellum and cervical spinal cord Neuroanatomy and Cerebral Circulation Review, West GTA Stroke Network, 2003

Slide 12 :

12 Frontal Lobe Blood supply - ACA and MCA Major functions: personality, behaviour motor function judgement/problem solving micturation expressive speech - Broca’sword formation, articulation andspeech production concentration, reasoning Neuroanatomy and Cerebral Circulation Review, West GTA Stroke Network, 2003

Slide 13 :

13 Parietal Lobe Blood supply – ACA, MCAand PCA Major functions: sensory function body part awareness visual spatial information Neuroanatomy and Cerebral Circulation Review, West GTA Stroke Network, 2003

Slide 14 :

14 Temporal Lobe Blood supply - MCA and PCA Major Functions: understanding speech -Wernickes visual, olfactory and auditory perception learning, memory, emotional affect Neuroanatomy and Cerebral Circulation Review, West GTA Stroke Network, 2003

Slide 15 :

15 Occipital Lobe Blood supply - MCA,PCA Major Functions: primary visual area some visual reflexes involuntary smooth eye movements recognition & identification of objects Neuroanatomy and Cerebral Circulation Review, West GTA Stroke Network, 2003

Slide 16 :

16 Cerebellum Blood supply -Vertebrobasilar Major Functions: control of fine motor movement coordinates muscle groups maintains balance, equilibrium Neuroanatomy and Cerebral Circulation Review, West GTA Stroke Network, 2003

Slide 17 :

17 Brain Stem Blood supply - PCA & Vertebrobasilar Major divisions - midbrain, pons, medulla Houses CN III-XII Serves as a pathway Reticular Activating System Neuroanatomy and Cerebral Circulation Review, West GTA Stroke Network, 2003

18 Motor & Sensory Function

Slide 19 :

19 Common Effects by Hemisphere

Slide 20 :

20 COMMON EFFECTS OF A RIGHT HEMISPERIC STROKE Left visual field loss (homonymous hemianopsia) Dysphagia Usually retain language ability but may have difficulty producing speech (dysarthria) Left-sided weakness (hemiparesis) or paralysis (hemiplegia) Sensory impairment Denial of paralysis, “forget” or “ignore” objects or people on their left side (neglect) Impaired ability to judge spatial relationships (misjudge distances and depth leading to falls, unable to guide hands to button a shirt, problems with directions such as up / down, no concept of time) Impaired ability to locate and identify body parts Short-term memory impairments (difficulty remembering new information) and apraxia (inability to carry out learned movement in the absence of weakness or paralysis) Behavioral changes such as impaired judgement or insight into limitations, overestimate physical ability, impulsivity, inappropriateness and difficulty comprehending and expressing emotions

Slide 21 :

21 COMMON EFFECTS OF A LEFT HEMISPERIC STROKE Right visual field loss (homonymous hemianopsia) Dysphagia May develop aphasia (loss of language including spoken, written, reading and comprehension) but may also have dysarthria Right-sided weakness (hemiparesis) or paralysis (hemiplegia) Sensory impairment Usually have normal perception Usually judgement is intact with good insight into limitations Short-term memory impairments (difficulty remembering new information) and apraxia (inability to carry out learned movement in the absence of weakness or paralysis) Often develop a slow and cautious behavioral style. They need frequent instructions and feedback to complete tasks Better able to comprehend and express emotions

Slide 22 :

22 Types of Stroke Ischemic 80 - 84% Caused by blockage of the artery resulting in reduction of blood flow and cell death Include thrombotic, lacunar, embolic cryptogenic CT scan negative until a few days post stroke then hypodense area - indicates infarction

Slide 23 :

23 Thrombotic Stroke Atherosclerosis in cerebral arteries Similar to CAD – leading to MI Atherogenesis – decades long process In thrombotic stroke lumen of artery narrows to point of obstruction

Slide 24 :

24 Lacunar stroke Thrombosis of small, deep penetrating arteries causing a small lake or cavity Seen with chronic hypertension Only minor deficits seen Necrotic brain cells reabsorbed with time, leaving a very small cavity or lacune http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/imagepages/18009.htm

Slide 25 :

25 A clot travels from source outside of brain Encounters vessel with lumen narrow enough to block its passage Clot lodges there, blocking blood flow Most common source - heart Common conditions - atrial fibrillation, valvular disease, ventricular thrombi, atherosclerosis of the proximal aorta Embolic Stroke

Slide 26 :

26 Ischemic Stroke – CT scan

Slide 27 :

27 Types of Stroke Hemorrhagic 10 - 20% May be classified as subarachnoid due to ruptured aneurysm or trauma or intracerebral due to hypertension CT will show hyperdense area indicating bleeding into the damaged tissue

Slide 28 :

28 Hemorrhagic Stroke White box - site of the hemorrhage Orange region - brain areas damaged by the stroke Cells normally nourished by the hemorrhaging blood vessel, deprived of oxygen and other nutrients, perish very quickly leading to disability

Slide 29 :

29 Hemorrhagic Stroke CT scan

Slide 30 :

30 Comparison of Stroke Types Hemorrhagic Can be fatal at time of onset Client more likely to be semi-conscious or unconscious Client appears more ill and deteriorates rapidly Ischemic Rarely leads to death in the first hour Client may be drowsy but unlikely unconscious unless the infarct is large Client may deteriorate inthe first 24-48 hours

Slide 31 :

31 Determinant Factors Location of damage Severity of damage How well the body responds to the cerebral assault and repairs the blood supply to the brain How quickly other areas of brain tissue take over the work of the damaged cells

Slide 32 :

32 What about TIA’s? Transient occlusion or reduction in cerebral blood flow Classic definition of TIA - symptoms lasting up to 24 hours Most “true” TIA’s last 2 to 20 minutes with complete symptom resolution - symptoms lasting more than 1 hour is most likely as a result of permanent damage from stroke Serious warning sign of an increased risk for stroke -5% occur within 48 hoursof a TIA

Slide 33 :

Slide 34 :

34 Stroke Recognition and Treatment

Slide 35 :

Slide 36 :

36 Initiating Acute Stroke Care - 3 Golden Hours In the community Call 9-1-1 immediately Stroke Code initiated by Paramedics en route - goal to identify a possible stroke and get the patient to the ED as quickly as possible In-Patient Time of onset of the patient’s witnessed stroke symptoms is 3 hours or less

Slide 37 :

37 Time is Brain!

Slide 38 :

38 What is rt-PA? Tissue Plasminogen Recombinant Activator

Slide 39 :

39 Ischemic Penumbra Area around infarct Infarcted brain tissue dies quickly - brain cells within the penumbra remain viable for several hours after stroke Penumbra cells supplied with blood by collateral arteries Reperfusion important as circulation becomes inadequate with time

Slide 40 :

40 Cerebral Reperfusion in Acute Ischemic Stroke Goal - To limit irreversible ischemic damage during an acute ischemic stroke caused by an arterial occlusion. Thrombolysis will promote reperfusion of viable tissue

Slide 41 :

41 Emergency Management Strategies Neurological vital signs Blood pressure Glycemic control Control of body temperature Oxygenation Hydration

Slide 42 :

42 Hemorrhagic Stroke Treatment based on the underlying cause of the bleed and the extent of brain damage Treatment includes medication and surgical intervention Management of ? ICP with antihypertensives or surgical evacuation of hematoma In patients with ruptured aneurysm - clip or embolization

Slide 43 :

43 Same as stroke - sudden onset with loss of function Immediate recognition essential - don’t self diagnose or wait for symptom resolution Treat as a medical emergency - urgent medical assessment to rule out stroke and initiate interventions to prevent stroke TIA Symptoms

Slide 44 :

44 Strategies to prevent a stroke Maintain a healthy weight - eat a reduced-fat diet Reduce alcohol intake to 1-2 drinks / day Exercise - 30 minutes 3-4 times / week Become smoke free and drug free Management of hypertension (ACE inhibitors) Management of heart disease (anticoagulants), diabetes and hyperlipidemia (statins) Carotid endarterectomy may be indicated with stenosis Antiplatelets for plaque / clot formation Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA)

Slide 45 :

45 Stroke Recovery The most rapid recovery occurs during the first 3 to 4 months - may continue over many months or years Mild (6 wks); Moderate (13 wks); Severe (17 wks) Recovery process is affected by the: Survivor's age and general health Survivor's personality Survivor's coping abilities and emotional state Support of family and loved ones

Slide 46 :

46 Stroke Risk A person who has had a stroke has a higher risk of having another one Risk highest in the first year - 15 times the risk among the general population Risk remains high for the first five years 30% of people with previous stroke will have another one
