Approximately 800,000 strokes will occur this year resulting in
the fourth-leading cause of death in the U.S. and the leading cause of
adult disability. As our population ages, it is estimated that the
number of strokes will increase substantially. Getting informed and
acting fast is critical to saving lives and preventing brain damage.
Since 1989, May has been established as National Stroke Awareness Month, a time to raise awareness of stroke. This year, the St. Louis Community Action Network: Stroke Systems of Care Rehab Committee and the Association of Stroke Coordinators are sponsoring a Stroke Prevention Health Fair at St. Louis Outlet Mall in Hazelwood on Saturday, May 3, from 10:00 am - 3:00 pm. This community-education program is free to the public as part of National Stroke Prevention Month.
Health fair activities include free blood pressure testing, health screenings and risk analyses, as well as a variety of other health-related information. This event is an ideal opportunity for area residents to meet with health professionals to learn more about stroke prevention and treatment.

When: Saturday, May 3, 2014; 10:00 am - 3:00 pm

Absolutely everything in stroke is a failure and has been for 30 years.
Problems in stroke;
1. There is no
fast, easy and objective way to diagnose a stroke. Maybe when the
Qualcomm Tricorder X Prize is available. A number of friends have waited
hours in ERs until stroke symptoms have visibly manifested themselves.
