What You Think, How Stroke Associated With
Dementia? The thin line between Dementia and
Stroke is that Dementia happens after serious
damage has been done by the stroke. Dementia is
the condition where the persons cognitive
abilities decline and stroke is the brain
attack that disrupts the flow of blood to the
brain. In severe cases, if the blood vessel
bursts then it can lead to hemorrhagic stroke
that may result in death. A few experts state
that Vascular Dementia is associated with
left-hemisphere stroke. It affects the memory and
thought process of a person, planning,
reasoning, judgment, etc. This condition is
caused because of the restricted blood flow and
the condition that leads to blood vessel damage.
The Vascular Dementia condition occurs depending
on the size and location of the damaged brain
area. The factors that lead to stroke and
dementia are high

• A few times it has been seen that the stroke
  happens when the patient faces the TIA or
  Transient Ischemic Attack that restricts the
  blood flow for some 24 hours. It is also seen as
  the contributing factor towards Vascular
  Dementia that is the most common form of
  Dementia related to stroke-based dementia.
  Moreover, patients who are above the age of 65
  years are at a high risk of stroke as well as
  Vascular Dementia. Even a study shows that almost
  10 of patients who have suffered a stroke are
  at higher risk of developing Dementia.
