A stroke occurs when blood flow to a part of the brain is disrupted, either by a blockage (ischemic stroke) or bleeding (hemorrhagic stroke). This deprives brain cells of oxygen and nutrients, causing them to die. As a result, the functions controlled by that part of the brain are affected, such as movement, speech, and cognition.
