Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS) Market Analysis

Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS) occurs when blood flow through a brain artery is blocked by a clot- a mass of thickened blood. Clots are either thrombotic or embolic, depending on where they develop within the body. A thrombotic stroke, more common of the two, occurs when a clot forms within an artery in the brain. An embolic stroke occurs when a clot or small piece of plaque (fatty deposit) breaks off from elsewhere in the body, such as the heart, and travels through the bloodstream only to become stuck in a narrower vessel in the brain.

As per the study conducted by Edward C Jauch et. al. 2019, nearly 800,000 people suffer from strokes each year in the United States and 82–92% of these strokes are ischemic. Stroke is the fifth leading cause of adult death and disability. While, as per Luciana Catanese et. al. 2017, the incidence of AIS is greater among women beginning with an increased risk in the perimenopausal period and continuing into older age groups.
