Summary
Apoplexy was the first term used [1]. The term apoplexia (“struck down with violence,” “to strike suddenly”) was probably first used by Hippocrates [2]. The term was used when individuals developed rapid loss of consciousness and/or various manifestations of brain dysfunction. The “apoplexy” concept was used to describe varied disorders, later identified as acute cerebral events, vascular and nonvascular, as well as noncerebral acute occurrences such as myocardial infarction, pulmonary embolism, and intoxications, among others [1].
