Stroke Treatment: Why Every Minute Matters

Nov 8, 2025

In stroke care, time is truly brain; every minute lost can destroy millions of brain cells. Dr Vinny Sood, Associate Director – Neurosciences at Max Hospital, Gurugram, emphasises the vital importance of prompt intervention in stroke management. Recognising early signs, such as facial drooping, slurred speech, and weakness, is the first step towards saving lives. Immediate hospital arrival enables rapid diagnosis through MRI and timely treatments, such as thrombolysis (within 4.5 hours) or mechanical thrombectomy (within 6 hours). Swift action can mean the difference between recovery and disability, because in stroke, every minute counts.
