Stroke is a very dangerous and urgent condition. The consequences can be severe and permanent. In Slovenia, as well as in the world, mortality from stroke is at its peak. The success of treatment in most cases depends on how much time passes from symptoms to treatment. Therefore, the first step in providing first aid for a stroke is to call 112.

We will talk about the signs and consequences of a stroke with Ivona Ewa Kosi, MD, a specialist in neurology at Celje General Hospital. The April lecture will be the last in the series of health lectures that we are conducting in collaboration with the DVE Association.
