Scientists still investigate why some people develop the disorder and others don’t, but certain factors increase the risk, according to National Institutes of Health (NIH). Here are risk factors for stroke. To find out about your risk, select each checkbox/item on Risk Calculator* that applies to you.
If any of risk factors applies to you, please discuss with your doctors about your risk and having laboratory tests.
* The calculation gives the relative risk in each risk factor as compare to public who don’t experience the risk. For example, if the relative risk in a risk factor is more than 1.0, it indicates a higher risk or more than one time than no risk factor public. Please note that the relative risk of the disorder is based on data in US CDC, academia associations and literature, which may not represent current development. Please check recent research, or contact your doctors for most up-to-date information.
