Silent strokes are early symptoms of damage to the blood vessels in the brain.
They are known as ‘silent’ as they do not cause lasting changes that are sometimes linked to strokes, such as problems speaking or moving.
However, older adults who notice they often become sidetracked or lose their train of thought could have had a silent stroke.
The study included 54 adults aged 55 to 80 who were at risk of a stroke.
