What is TIA?

A Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA), often called a “mini-stroke,” is a temporary blockage of blood flow to the brain. Though its symptoms may resolve within minutes to hours, it is a serious medical condition that requires immediate TIA Treatment.

A TIA can be a warning sign of a future, more severe stroke. Identifying and responding to symptoms early can prevent potentially life-threatening outcomes.

How do you identify if you are suffering from a TIA?

One of the easiest and most important ways to identify a TIA is through the F.A.S.T. acronym:

  • Face Drooping – Ask the person to smile. If one side of the face droops, it may be a warning sign.
  • Arm Weakness – Ask the person to raise both arms. If one arm drifts downward, this could indicate muscle weakness.
  • Speech Difficulty – Ask the person to repeat a simple sentence. Slurred or strange speech can be a key symptom.
  • Time to Call 911 – If any of these signs are present, even temporarily, call emergency services immediately and note the time the symptoms began.

Because TIA symptoms typically resolve within 24 hours—and often much sooner—many people may not take them seriously.
However, every minute counts, and immediate evaluation is crucial.
