No single routine test that can accurately predict whether someone will have a stroke, but doctors can assess stroke risk by identifying major risk factors.
Common evaluations include:
Blood pressure measurement (high blood pressure is the biggest risk factor)
Blood sugar/HbA1c (for diabetes)
Lipid profile (cholesterol and triglycerides)
ECG, and sometimes prolonged heart rhythm monitoring to detect atrial
fibrillation
