Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about this quiz, what it covers, and what your results mean.

This quiz is for health education only and does not diagnose stroke or replace emergency care. If you or someone nearby has sudden face drooping, arm weakness, speech trouble, vision loss, severe headache, confusion, dizziness, or trouble walking, call 911 immediately—even if symptoms improve.

A stroke happens when blood flow to part of the brain is blocked or a blood vessel in the brain bursts. It is a medical emergency because brain tissue can be damaged quickly.

FAST means Face drooping, Arm weakness, Speech difficulty, and Time to call 911. If any of these signs starts suddenly, call 911 immediately.

Other warning signs include sudden trouble seeing, walking, or understanding speech; sudden dizziness or loss of balance; and a sudden severe headache with no known cause.

Call 911 immediately. Note when symptoms began or when the person was last known to be well, and do not drive to the hospital or wait for symptoms to improve.

Yes. Symptoms that disappear may be a transient ischemic attack, or TIA, and still require emergency evaluation because they can warn of a future stroke.

No. A quiz cannot diagnose or rule out a stroke. Emergency clinicians use an examination and brain imaging to determine whether a stroke occurred and what type it may be.

Yes. Stroke becomes more common with age, but it can occur at any age. Sudden warning signs always need emergency attention regardless of a person's age.

A transient ischemic attack is a temporary interruption of blood flow to the brain that causes stroke-like symptoms. Even when symptoms resolve, it is an emergency warning sign.

Clinicians assess the symptoms and medical history and use tests such as CT or MRI brain imaging. Other tests may help identify the cause and guide treatment.

High blood pressure, atrial fibrillation, diabetes, high cholesterol, smoking, and a previous stroke or TIA can increase risk. A clinician can help you assess and manage these factors.

No. Blood tests may provide information about clotting or cardiovascular risk, but they cannot replace emergency evaluation and brain imaging for possible stroke symptoms.

Work with a healthcare professional to manage blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, and heart rhythm problems. Avoid smoking, stay active, and follow an eating pattern that supports cardiovascular health.
