Stroke Prevention

A stroke occurs when a blood clot blocks an artery or blood vessel in the brain, interrupting the blood flow to a certain area. During a stroke, brain cells in the immediate area can be destroyed and can release chemicals that kill surrounding areas of the brain. Critically, there is a window for intervention treatment that can prevent the serious, even fatal consequences of a stroke. Our Pittsburgh stroke misdiagnosis attorney will investigate your case to determine whether injury was caused by medical negligence.
