Ischemic
perinatal stroke: challenge and opportunities, Aug. 2008. The
second highest risk group for developing a cerebral stroke is the
perinatal period, generally defined as 20 weeks of gestation through 28th
postnatal day of age. In this commentary, a brief overview of ischemic
perinatal strokes is presented. Ischemic perinatal stroke (IPS) occurs at
a rate of 1 : 2300 to 1 : 5000 births, accounting for 30% of children with
hemiplegic cerebral palsy (CP). Thus, IPS is the most common known cause
for CP [1-3]. Although they occur frequently, much remains to be studied
about perinatal strokes in general and the ischemic variety in particular.

Recognizing Strokes in Children video,
produced by the Keeping
Kids Healthy TV Show. Recognizing strokes right away – and knowing what to do about them – is crucial in limiting the damage they can do to the rest of a child’s life. Would you recognize the signs of a stroke in your child?
