Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This statement is false. A transient ischemic attack (TIA) is often referred to as a "mini-stroke" and results in temporary symptoms that usually resolve within 24 hours. In contrast, a cerebrovascular accident (CVA) is a stroke that results in permanent brain damage due to a lack of blood flow to the brain. CVAs are generally more serious than TIAs.
