Entry term(s) encefalopatía isquémica
isquemia encefálica
Scope note: Reducción localizada del flujo sanguíneo al tejido cerebral ocasionada por obstrucción arterial o hipoperfusión sistémica. Se produce frecuentemente junto a HIPOXIA CEREBRAL. La isquemia prolongada se asocia con INFARTO CEREBRAL.
