Coma Apoplectiform

Apoplectic coma (apoplectic coma) is a condition characterized by a severe reaction of the body to a pathological process that occurs in the body. The main reason for the development of this condition is cerebral infarction - an acute disruption of the blood supply to brain tissue due to blockage of the vascular bed.

It is important to note that the apostoptic coma occurs only in patients with previously identified cerebrovascular pathology that causes infarction of brain tissue. The primary causes of its development: ischemic, hemorrhagic stroke, embolism of cerebral vessels, vasculitis and other diseases. If the patient is not promptly helped in such conditions, he may fall into a lethargic sleep or die, since a more severe form of coma often occurs, in which irreversible tissue death occurs. In some cases, it is possible to develop less severe forms of the disease that require treatment and conservative therapy. Apoplexy coma occurs acutely, developing suddenly, without preceding precursors and reasons for the deterioration of the patient’s well-being. Most often it occurs after a hypertensive crisis, vascular atherosclerosis and other cardiovascular diseases.
