MRI scan needed to see if its by thrombosis or rupture
often fatal

provoked

Question 15

absence seizures

Answer 15

disturbances in consc

Answer 20

begin in one hemi
lasting 90 sec
aggressive limb movement

Answer 23

medication that dissolves blood clots

not used for hemorrhagic strokes

Question 24

meaning comes and goes

Answer 24

transient
