What is Hemorrhagic Stroke?
A Hemorrhagic Stroke occurs when a blood vessel bursts or ruptures within the brain, causing uncontrolled bleeding. Also known as intracranial haemorrhage, this condition is more commonly observed in individuals aged 65 and above. The bleeding exerts pressure on surrounding cells and tissues, depriving brain cells of oxygenated blood and leading to their death. Hemorrhagic stroke comprises approximately 13 per cent of all stroke cases.
Recognising the Symptoms of Hemorrhagic Stroke
- Paralysis, numbness, or weakness in the limbs
- Slurred speech

Hemorrhagic stroke is primarily caused by the rupture of a blood vessel. Common contributing factors include:
- Hypertension
- Brain Injury
- Bleeding Disorders
- Drug abuse
- Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs)
- Aneurysms
Diagnosis of Hemorrhagic Stroke
Diagnostic methods for Hemorrhagic Stroke include:
- Computerized Tomography (CT) scan
- Magnetic Mesonance Imaging (MRI)
- Electroencephalogram (EEG)
Management / Treatment of Hemorrhagic Stroke at IBS Hospital
Various treatment options are available at IBS Hospital for patients with hemorrhagic stroke:
Emergency Measures: Medications are used to counteract the effects of blood-thinning medications the patient may be taking.
Surgical Intervention: Invasive procedures aim to drain blood and relieve pressure from the brain.
Surgical Clipping: Surgical clamps are employed to reduce blood flow to the aneurysm and prevent rupture.
Coiling (Endovascular Embolization): Detachable coils are implanted into the aneurysms via a catheter to block blood flow.
AVM Removal Surgery: Considered for patients with small aneurysms in easily accessible brain areas.
Stereotactic Radiosurgery: High-intensity radiation repairs blood vessel malformations.
As treatment strategies vary based on individual cases, it’s advisable to consult our medical experts for personalized guidance.
