Vallabh Janardhan: Strokes Affecting Younger Patients

 

Vallabh Janardhan, Co-Founder and CMO at Insera Therapeutics, Inc., posted on LinkedIn:

”Blood clots causing strokes can strike anyone – at any age, any time. Awareness truly saves lives.

Here’s a prior NBC5 News story featuring my interview on how younger people – especially women – can also be at risk.
Watch here NBC5: Strokes Affecting Younger Patients

During and after childbirth, dehydration and natural changes in clotting may lead to Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis – a blockage-type stroke caused by blood clots in the brain’s veins.

Certain genetic factors, such as a prothrombin gene mutation, can further raise risk – especially in women who smoke and use birth control pills.

Behind every breakthrough device or treatment is one critical truth: recognizing blood clots and the early signs and symptoms saves lives.

Know the signs and symptoms of a stroke – BE FAST:
Balance | Eyes | Face | Arms | Speech | Time to call 911

Every second counts. Every person counts.”
