Stroke occurs when the blood supply to part of your brain is interrupted or reduced, preventing brain tissue from getting oxygen and nutrients. Early action can reduce brain damage and other complications.

Often patients gets with sequelaes, like dysarthria, central facial palsy and loss of power or sensibility in the affected hemibody. Consequently, patients could get with less autonomy in daily living activities.

Researchers have found that people who participate in a focused stroke rehabilitation program perform better than most people who don’t have stroke rehabilitation. The goal will be to help the patient relearn skills that he lost when a stroke affected part of his brain.

To achieve it, it is important to make an adjusted rehabilitation program to the patient composed of pharmacological treatment, physiotherapy, speech therapy, occupational therapy, prescription of orthosis and support products, minimally invasive procedures, like botulinum toxin injection, and others.
