Learn more about mini-strokes and how we treat them: https://www.amitahealth.org/stroke Mini-stroke is a layperson’s term for transient ischemic attack (TIA), according to Diane Csajaghy, MSN, ACPN, an AMITA Health neurological acute care nurse practitioner based in Chicago’s Norwood Park area. But don’t let the diminutive name fool you — it’s just a serious as any other type of stroke. “[Mini-stroke] is a warning sign. It’s your body’s way of telling your body that it is trying to have a stroke,” says Csajaghy. In fact, many of her stroke patients report having mini strokes weeks before the one that sent them to the hospital. That’s why she recommends seeing a doctor immediately if you experience the symptoms of a mini-stroke.
