More Definitions of Stroke

Stroke means a definite diagnosis of an acute cerebrovascular event caused by intra-cranial thrombosis, infarction of brain tissue, haemorrhage and embolism from an extra-cranial source resulting in neurological deficit. The diagnosis of Stroke must be based on changes seen in a CT scan or MRI and must be confirmed by a Neurologist.
Stroke means a cerebrovascular accident or incident producing neurological impairment and resulting in paralysis or other measurable objective neurological deficit persisting for at least 30 days. Specifically excluded from the definition of stroke are Transient Ischemic Attacks and attacks of Vertebrobasilar Ischemia.
Stroke means a cerebrovascular event resulting in infarction (death) of brain tissue which is caused by hemorrhage, embolism or thrombosis evident from neuroimaging (CT, MRI, MRA, PET Tomography or similar imaging technique). Such event must produce measurable, neurological deficit(s) in accordance with a score of 3 or greater on the Modified Rankin Scale persisting for at least 30 consecutive days following the occurrence of the stroke.
Stroke means an Unequivocal Diagnosis of cerebrovascular incident which includes infarction of brain tissue, cerebral and subarachnoid haemorrhage, cerebral vessel embolism and cerebral vessel thrombosis and must be supported by:
