SPARSH Hospitals: Revolutionizing Stroke Care with Speed and Precision

In India, roughly 1.8 million new stroke cases occur annually, making it a leading cause of death. SPARSH Group of Hospitals prioritize rapid response and efficient treatment, with 'Code Stroke' systems and advanced techniques to ensure timely care. Their initiatives aim to prevent disability and promote recovery.

Every 40 seconds, someone in the world suffers from a stroke, and every four minutes, someone dies from it. In India, the situation is dire, with an estimated 1.8 million new cases annually, making stroke a leading cause of death and disability among adults.

On World Stroke Day 2025, the SPARSH Group of Hospitals across Bangalore renewed their commitment to saving precious time and lives. Dr. Nithin Kumar, a Senior Neurologist at SPARSH Hospital, emphasized the significance of rapid treatment in recovery. 'Every minute saved in treating a stroke gives a patient more of their brain back,' he highlighted, showcasing SPARSH's synchronized emergency teams and rapid response systems.

SPARSH hospitals are addressing the increasing incidence of stroke among younger Indians by enhancing both acute care and preventive education. Their network enables speedy intervention, with streamlined communication from ambulance to hospital, ensuring prompt and effective treatment.

Strokes globally claim more lives than certain cancers, but timely intervention can lead to a high recovery rate. SPARSH units also leverage advanced interventions like mechanical thrombectomy, removing clots long after onset, highlighting a commitment to cutting-edge care. Awareness and avoiding delays remain crucial in stroke treatment, reflecting SPARSH's mission to restore futures and not just treat conditions.
