Stroke is a serious medical condition that is the leading cause of disability in the United States. Someone in the United States will suffer a stroke every 40 seconds and every 4 minutes someone dies of a stroke. Only 38% of people are aware of all major stroke symptoms. It is important to determine if someone is suffering a stroke at the earliest possible. People that arrive to the emergency room within 4.5 hours of symptom onset can receive a clot buster medication and have better prognosis.
