About
A stroke occurs when the blood supply to part of your brain is interrupted or reduced, preventing brain tissue from getting oxygen and nutrients. Brain cells begin to die in minutes.
A stroke is a medical emergency, and prompt treatment is crucial. Early action can reduce brain damage and other complications.
About the measurement
Stroke Risk is the likelihood (expressed in percentage) for you to experience a stroke within the next 10 years. This risk score is based upon the Framingham Method, and derived from an algorithm developed based on data from prospective studies that followed up participants in terms of their cardiovascular health for over ten years.
