When a blood clot blocks the blood flow to the brain, a person has an ischemic stroke. This type of stroke is also called a cerebral infarction or brain attack. During the stroke, the brain cannot receive new supplies of oxygen and other vital nutrients from the blood. Within minutes, starving brain cells die.
