Scope note: Ictus debido a ISQUEMIA CEREBRAL que causa la interrupción o la reducción del flujo sanguíneo a una parte del encéfalo. Cuando la obstrucción se debe a un COÁGULO SANGUÍNEO formado en un vaso sanguíneo del cerebro, se denomina ictus trombótico. Cuando la obstrucción se forma en otro lugar y se desplaza hasta obstruir un vaso sanguíneo del cerebro (véase EMBOLIA CEREBRAL), se denomina ictus embólico. El ictus del despertar es un ictus isquémico que ocurre durante el sueño, mientras que el ictus criptogénico es un ictus de origen desconocido.

Scope note: Stroke due to BRAIN ISCHEMIA resulting in interruption or reduction of blood flow to a part of the brain. When obstruction is due to a BLOOD CLOT formed within in a cerebral blood vessel it is a thrombotic stroke. When obstruction is formed elsewhere and moved to block a cerebral blood vessel (see CEREBRAL EMBOLISM) it is referred to as embolic stroke. Wake-up stroke refers to ischemic stroke occurring during sleep while cryptogenic stroke refers to ischemic stroke of unknown origin.
