What is a Transient Ischaemic Attack (TIA)?
A Transient Ischaemic Attack (TIA) is a temporary blockage of blood flow to the brain that causes symptoms similar to a stroke but resolves within minutes to hours without lasting damage. TIAs are a warning sign of potential future strokes and require urgent medical attention. Carrying an ICE card helps emergency medical personnel recognise your condition and respond quickly to reduce the risk of a full stroke.
