Diagnosing A Stroke At Home

Sometimes, the stroke starts gradually and that's why Dr. Italo Linfante, Medical Director of Interventional Neuroradiology & Endovascular Neurosurgery with Baptist Health Neuroscience Center, recommends calling 911 to assist the patient quickly. Once in the hospital, the doctor will decide which treatment should be applied to the patient, depending on the type of stroke.
