Self-actualization, according to Maslow, represents the growth of an individual toward fulfillment of the highest needs. Maslow argues that only high acheivers are self-actualizers, but we are all in fact capable of self-actualization.
In a thrombotic stroke, a blood clot (thrombus) forms inside one of the brain's arteries. The clot blocks blood flow to a part of the brain. This causes brain cells in that area to stop functioning and die quickly.
These categories of risk factors, called âVirchowâs triad,â are: 1) endothelial damage, 2) abnormal blood flow, and 3) hypercoagulability. Endothelial damage increases the risk of thrombus formation through many mechanisms.
