The lasting and non-lasting effects of early childhood strokes are presented and evaluated in this paper. Efforts have been made to focus on the cases of children aged up to 10 years. however, the empirical studies developed in regard to this subject has been rather generic, not focusing to specific parts of children population, but referring to children in general. The literature published on the specific field, as analyzed below, proves that these effects can vary in accordance with a series of criteria and conditions. The assumptions developed in the empirical research regarding these effects are critically discussed aiming to show that the development of preventive measures regarding early childhood strokes would be preferable than the effective intervention at a later stage, i.e. after the occurrence of the particular health problem, mostly since the lasting and non-lasting effects of stroke during the specific period of human life, meaning the early childhood, can be quite severe. In accordance with Aminoff, the chances for a child to face a stroke are not so high. it is explained that in a relevant research, the rate of stroke in childhood has been found to be ‘between 2.5 and 8 per 100,000’ (Aminoff 67). ...

The findings of the research of Christerson and Stromberg (2010) further verify the view that the rate of stroke among infants is low. In the empirical study developed by the above researchers was proved that the rate of stroke among infants is approximately ‘1.8 per 100,000 children’ (Christerson and Stromberg 1641). Christerson and Stromberg (2010) tried to identify the effects, especially the short term ones, of stroke on children. Among the 51 cases reviewed, a percentage of 4% was led to a fatal outcome, i.e. the stroke led to the death of the children. The above effect has been immediate, i.e. the death occurred during the acute phase. A high percentage of children, approximately 82% had to face ‘a neurological dysfunction’ (Christerson and Stromberg 1641). At this point, it should be mentioned that the above research (the one of Christerson and Stromberg) took place in Sweden, a fact that could possibly lead to the assumption that the low rate of stroke incidents among children may be related to regional or environmental factors. It should be also noted that the average age of children participated in the study was 13 years. Usually, stroke is related to long-term heart problems, especially those that have been faced through surgery (Aminoff 67). Of particular importance are the methods used for controlling stroke in infants and children, having in mind that the reduction of the rate of strokes in childhood would be followed by the decrease of mortality and of severe health problems not only of children but also of adults, referring to the case that a child has survived from a stroke but has to cooperate with the effects of the stroke for the rest of his/ her life.
