    Stroke Pathophysio

    Uploaded by

    This document discusses the pathophysiology of intracerebral hemorrhage. Key points include: - Intracerebral hemorrhage is caused by the rupture of a blood vessel in the brain, which leads to bleeding in the surrounding brain tissue. - Risk factors include modifiable factors like diet, lifestyle, and hypertension as well as non-modifiable factors like age, gender, and heredity. - The bleeding causes increased intracranial pressure, reduced oxygen supply to the brain, and cellular edema, which can lead to complications like brain herniation if not treated. Surgical intervention or medical management may be needed to prevent further deterioration.
