In this article, the opinions of our country's and foreign scientists are mentioned about the causes of ischemic stroke and modern methods of its prevention. Ischemic stroke, caused by a blockage in a brain artery, is a serious condition that can lead to long-term disability or even death. While some risk factors are beyond our control, adopting a proactive approach to prevention significantly reduces the risk.
