Stroke-like episodes are at variance from ischemic stroke, pathogenically, clinically and on imaging.
They may be the manifestation of a vascular, metabolic or epileptic process and present with predominantly vasogenic but also cytotoxic edema on MRI.
Its cause is most frequently cardioembolic due to atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter, dilated cardio-myopathy, or left-ventricular hyper trabeculation (noncompaction).
The second most frequent cause of stroke in myopathies is angiopathy from atherosclerosis or vasculitis, which may be a feature of inflammatory myopathies.
Most affected individuals experience stroke-like episodes beginning before age 40. These episodes often involve altered consciousness, vision abnormalities, seizures, severe headaches resembling migraines but most importantly temporary muscle weakness on one side of the body (hemiparesis).
Treatment of stroke-like episodes is not standardized but seems to respond to laser therapy especially in relation to the musculoskeletal issues this disease causes.
Indeed, the Smart Medical 26.2Watt Diode Laser SIFLASER-3.2 is specifically designed to treat these muscle-related issues.
The central goal of this laser device is to stimulate the cell to perform its natural musculoskeletal functions either at the level of nerves or muscles, but at an enhanced rate.
Targeted in hemoglobin and cytochrome c oxidase, the high power diode laser could help the respiration and then as a result have a good performance therapy.
In sharp contrast to “Cold lasers” which provide no feeling or sensation, high power diode laser therapy will provide a warm and smoothing feeling which would ultimately result in muscle relief.
Clear enough, then, that the Laser therapy exclusively provided by the SIFLASER-3.2 stimulates muscle trigger points and acupuncture points on a non-invasive basis providing musculoskeletal pain relief.
Further, this disease is heavily affected by the vascular and metabolic processes in the body. Luckily, this device does not only work on improving vascular activity, but it also increases the metabolic function through creating higher outputs of specific enzymes, greater oxygen and food particle loads for blood cells.
All this, in turn, should mean that the SIFLASER-3.2 is the best ultimate choice for Stroke-Like Episodes survivors. Although the device is incapable of solving the rest of this disease’s issues, it can at least relieve them from any muscle-related pain be it minor or severe, this should undoubtedly be one of their top desires in case they are looking for a quick recovery.
