Stroke. A cerebrovascular incident including infarction of brain tissue, cerebral and subarachnoid haemorrhage, intracerebral embolism and cerebral thrombosis resulting in permanent neurological deficit with persisting clinical symptoms. This diagnosis must be supported by all of the following conditions: • Evidence of permanent clinical neurological deficit confirmed by a neurologist at least 6 weeks after the event; and • Findings on Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Computerised Tomography, or other reliable imaging techniques consistent with the diagnosis of a new stroke. The following are excluded: • Transient Ischaemic Attacks; • Brain damage due to an accident or injury, infection, vasculitis, and inflammatory disease; • Vascular disease affecting the eye or optic nerve; and • Ischaemic disorders of the vestibular system.
Stroke. Any cerebrovascular incident including infarction of brain tissue, thrombosis in an intracranial vessel, hemorrhage and embolisation from an extra cranial source, which results in neurological sequelae. Transient Ischemic Attacks (TIA) are excluded. Treatment of the neurological sequelae is excluded from the cover if the primary condition is not covered.
Stroke. A cerebrovascular incident including infarction of brain tissue, cerebral and subarachnoid haemorrhage, cerebral embolism and cerebral thrombosis. This diagnosis must be supported by all of the following conditions: Evidence of permanent neurological damage confirmed by a neurologist at least 6 weeks after the event; and Findings on Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Computerised Tomography, or other reliable imaging techniques consistent with the diagnosis of a new stroke. The following are excluded: Transient Ischaemic Attacks; Brain damage due to an accident or injury, infection, vasculitis, and inflammatory disease; Vascular disease affecting the eye or optic nerve; and Ischaemic disorders of the vestibular system.
Stroke. Any cerebrovascular incident producing permanent neurological sequelae and including infarction of brain tissue, haemorrhage and embolisation from an extracranial source. Diagnosis has to be confirmed by a Specialist and evidenced by typical clinical symptoms as well as typical findings in CCT Scan or MRI of the brain. Evidence of neurological deficit for at least three (3) months has to be produced. The following are however excluded Transient ischemic attacks (TIA); Traumatic injury of the brain; Neurological symptoms due to migraine; Lacunar strokes without neurological deficit.
Stroke. Any stroke causing permanent and irreversible neurological sequelae. It includes brain haemorrhage and cerebral embolism of an extracranial nature. The diagnosis must be confirmed by a medical specialist and attested by typical clinical symptoms, apart from the results of a CAT scan (computerised axial tomography) and of an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) of the brain.
Stroke. A cerebrovascular accident or incident producing neurological sequelae of a permanent nature, having lasted not less than six months. Infarction of brain tissue, thrombosis in an intra-cranial vessel, hemorrhage and embolisation from an extra- cranial source are included. The diagnosis must be based on changes seen in a CT scan or MRI and certified by a neurologist acceptable to the Company.
i. cerebral symptoms due to transient ischemic attacks, ii. any reversible ischemic neurological deficit,
Stroke. A cerebrovascular incident resulting in permanent neurological damage. Transient ischaemic attacks are specifically excluded.
Stroke. The diagnosis and certification by a Consultant neurologist of any cerebrovascular incident producing neurological sequel lasting more than twenty-four hours and including infarction of brain tissue, haemorrhage and embolisation from an extra cranial source if there is evidence satisfactory to the Company of permanent neurological deficit for more than six months. Special Exclusion: Cerebral symptoms due to transient ischaemic attacks, any reversible ischaemic neurological deficit, migraine, cerebral injury resulting from trauma or hypoxia and vascular disease affecting the eye or optic nerve as well as ischaemic disorders of the vestibular system.
Stroke. The diagnosis and certification by a Consultant neurologist of any cerebrovascular incident producing-neurological sequel which includes infarction of brain tissue, hemorrhage and ernboIisation from an extra cranial source. The following must evidence diagnosis for the same: • Findings on Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Computerized Tomography, or other reliable imaging techniques demonstrate a lesion consistent with acute hemorrhage, embolism or thrombosis • Evidence satisfactory to the Company of permanent neurological deficit for more than six months. subject to the survival of the Insured person for a minimum period of 30 days from the date of diagnosis for the first time during the policy period.
Stroke. 7.4.1. Definition: A cerebro-vascular incident including infarction of brain tissue, cerebral or sub arachnoid haemorrhage, cerebral embolism and cerebral thrombosis, resulting in permanent neurological deficit.
