Sometimes a family member tells us that he or she has had a minor attack and then tells us that he or she has had a cerebral infarct (stroke) due to the attack. Recognising the signs of a cerebral infarct or stroke is very important because if the patient is taken to a neurologist within the first three hours, the effects can be completely reversed.<\/p>\n

The symptoms of a cerebral infarct are sometimes difficult to identify. Unfortunately, this lack of knowledge can have fatal consequences. The stroke victim may suffer brain damage if nobody recognizes the symptoms.<\/p>\n

The specialists have given us a rule we can use to determine whether a person has had a stroke by asking three simple questions. <\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ask the affected person to:<\/p>\n

\n1. Smile.
\n2. Raise both arms.
\n3. Say a simple sentence. For example, It's very hot today.<\/p>\n

If the person affected has difficulties with any of these three tasks, call the emergency department immediately and describe the symptoms.<\/p>\n
