Cerebrovascular disorder, or AVH, includes cerebral infarctions and cerebral hemorrhages. Cerebral infarction is the most common type: it occurs when a blood clot blocks a cerebral artery and brain cells begin to die from lack of oxygen. In Finland, AVH affects about 24,000 people each year, and it is the third most common cause of death. The condition can affect people of any age, but the risk rises sharply with age.
