Gurgaon’s First 24×7 Brain Stroke Helpline – 1800-309-0247

Advanced Stroke Care in Gurgaon

Because in a Brain Stroke, Every Minute Saved Is a Life Saved.

Stroke is one of the leading causes of disability and death in India, and the only way to reduce its devastating impact is fast, expert, and coordinated emergency care. To ensure that stroke patients receive immediate medical attention, Marengo Asia Hospitals, Gurugram has launched the city’s first 24×7 Brain Stroke Helpline – 1800-309-0247 under the major awareness campaign “Strike Out Stroke (SOS)”.

This dedicated helpline enables instant access to neurologists, emergency teams, and stroke-ready ambulances, ensuring that treatment begins at the earliest possible moment—because in stroke care, every second counts.

Under the leadership of Dr. Praveen Gupta, Chairman, Marengo Asia International Institute of Neuro and Spine (MAIINS) Gurugram, the initiative aims to save thousands of lives by reducing delays in stroke diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment.

Raising Awareness: The SOS (Strike Out Stroke) Campaign

The launch of the helpline was marked by a special Sufi music concert, designed to educate the public about early symptoms of stroke, the significance of the ‘golden hour’, and why immediate hospitalization can be life-saving.
The event helped bridge the awareness gap that often prevents families from recognizing the warning signs.

According to Dr. Praveen Gupta,

“Many patients reach hospitals too late because their families fail to identify the early signs of a stroke. This helpline instantly connects patients with neurologists and our emergency response team, significantly improving treatment outcomes.”

Why a 24×7 Brain Stroke Helpline Was Needed

Stroke cases often occur late at night or early in the morning—times when families struggle to arrange transportation or medical care.

Data shows:

  1. •   Only 2–5% of stroke patients in India receive timely treatment.
  2. •   India reports 1.5–1.8 million stroke cases annually.
  3. •   Stroke incidence is rising among younger individuals (25–45 years) post-COVID due to smoking, stress, hypertension, and lifestyle imbalance.

Delayed diagnosis and treatment often lead to:

  1. •   Permanent disabilities
  2. •   Speech and movement impairments
  3. •   Loss of independence
  4. •   Paralysis
  5. •   Higher mortality rates

With the Marengo 24×7 Brain Stroke Helpline, patients receive immediate support, clear guidance, and fast intervention—dramatically increasing their chance of survival and recovery.

Understanding Stroke: A Medical Emergency

A stroke occurs when the blood supply to a part of the brain is interrupted or a blood vessel bursts.

If not treated immediately, brain cells begin to die within minutes.
This can result in:

  1. •   Brain damage
  2. •   Cognitive impairment
  3. •   Permanent disability
  4. •   Paralysis
  5. •   Death

Types of Strokes Treated at Marengo Asia Hospitals, Gurugram

  1. •   Ischemic Stroke
  2. Caused by a clot blocking blood flow to the brain.
    This is the most common type and can be treated using clot-busting medicines (tPA) or mechanical thrombectomy.
  3. •   Hemorrhagic Stroke
  4. Occurs when a blood vessel ruptures, leading to brain bleeding.
    This requires emergency neurosurgical intervention.
  5. •   Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA)
  6. Often called a “mini stroke,” it is a temporary blockage and a major warning sign of an upcoming severe stroke.

Recognizing Stroke: Symptoms You Should Never Ignore

Recognizing stroke symptoms is the first step toward saving a life.
Doctors recommend remembering FAST:

  • •   F – Face Drooping
  • Sudden drooping or numbness on one side of the face.
  • •   A – Arm Weakness
  • Inability to raise one arm or sudden weakness.
  • •   S – Speech Difficulty
  • Slurred speech or inability to speak.
  • •   T – Time to Call 1800-309-0247
  • Immediate medical attention is crucial.

Other symptoms include:

  • •   Sudden vision loss
  • •   Severe headache
  • •   Dizziness
  • •   Unsteady walking
  • •   Confusion or difficulty understanding

If you notice any of these, call the 24×7 Brain Stroke Helpline immediately.
