Abstract

The third leading cause of death in the United States, nearly 800,000 Americans experience a stroke each year. Up to 30% of stroke patients become permanently disabled, with 20% requiring institutional care 4 months after the event. We fill you in on what you need to know about hemorrhagic stroke-the most fatal type.
