    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stroke

    Stroke (also known as a cerebrovascular accident ( CVA) or brain attack) is a medical condition in which poor blood flow to the brain causes cell death. [5] There are two main types of stroke: ischemic, due to lack of blood flow, and hemorrhagic, due to bleeding. [5] Both cause parts of the brain to stop functioning properly.

  9. Stroke volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stroke_volume

    The stroke volumes for each ventricle are generally equal, both being approximately 90 mL in a healthy 70-kg man. Stroke volume is an important determinant of cardiac output, which is the product of stroke volume and heart rate, and is also used to calculate ejection fraction, which is stroke volume divided by end-diastolic volume. Because ...
