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.
The clot interrupts blood flow and causes a stroke. Two types of thrombosis can cause a stroke: large vessel thrombosis and small vessel disease (or lacunar infarction.) Large Vessel Thrombosis: This is the most common type of thrombotic stroke. It is caused by a combination of long-term atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) followed by rapid blood clot formation.
