India bears
a significant burden of stroke, accounting for 68.6% of stroke incidences,
70.9% of stroke deaths, and 77.7% of disability-adjusted life years lost,
making stroke the second most common cause of death. Approximately 185,000

stroke death every 4 minutes.
Dr. Amit Shrivastava, HOD and Director of Neurology, Yatharth Super Specialty Hospital, Omega 1, Greater Noida said “Time plays a pivotal role in the management of stroke, as every single minute delay in treatment leads to loss of 20 million brain cells, which may lead to permanent disability or even mortality. Our rapid response ’Stroke Team’ is geared up to ensure that all stroke patients coming within the ‘Golden period’ i.e. 4.5 to 24 hrs (depending on the situation) receive the best possible treatment to optimize best outcomes.
