Stroke in Children
Stroke has no age limits. It can happen to children, even infants.
Pediatric Stroke Causes
Finding the cause of pediatric stroke is vital to providing the right treatment and preventing more injury.
Recovery and Pediatric Stroke
Each child recovers differently from stroke. Prompt medical treatment and rehabilitation therapy can maximize recovery. In general, younger people recover more abilities than older people.
