A UK advert runs as follows:-
You could save your own or someone else's life, or help limit the long-term effects of stroke, by learning to think and Act F.A.S.T.
F.A.S.T. or Face-Arms-Speech-Time is easy to remember and will help you to recognise if you or someone else is having a stroke.
Face – has their face fallen on one side? Can they smile?
Arms – can they raise both arms and keep them there?
Speech – is their speech slurred?
Time to call 999 (or Greek equivalent) if you see any single one of these signs of a stroke.
There seems to be no one term, technical or conventional, to describe a stroke in Greek: αποπληξία/συμφόρηση/εγκεφαλικό επεισόδιο?
Could a colleague translate into Greek the above section in bold [of course, I'm not expecting the FAST mnemonic!?]?
Incidentally, the death mask of Julius Caesar in Turin museum seems to show that he died of a stroke.
