Entry term(s) AIT
ataque isquémico transitorio
ataques isquémicos transitorios in crescendo
isquemia cerebral transitoria
isquemia transitoria del tronco encefálico
Scope note: Episodios breves y reversibles de disfunción focal, no convulsiva e isquémica del cerebro que tienen una duración menor de 24 horas, y generalmente menor de una hora, que se originan por oclusión o estenosis transitoria trombótica o embólica de los vasos sanguíneos. Los fenómenos pueden clasificarse por la distribución arterial, patrón temporal o etiología (por ejemplo, embólica o trombótica). (Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp814-6)

Scope note: Brief reversible episodes of focal, nonconvulsive ischemic dysfunction of the brain having a duration of less than 24 hours, and usually less than one hour, caused by transient thrombotic or embolic blood vessel occlusion or stenosis. Events may be classified by arterial distribution, temporal pattern, or etiology (e.g., embolic vs. thrombotic). (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp814-6)
