Listen to the original audio · Transcribed with NVIDIA Parakeet · Why times can differ in your player

And when you go from arteries where there's a huge amount of blood flow to capillaries, the blood flow slows down and then to the veins. So they uh in her case, she had what they like a bridge that went from the artery directly to the vein. So over time,

There was too much pressure going into the this these uh veins in her brain. And one of those veins burst. And then a large amount of blood, you know, filled her brain, which is a confined volume. And so it, you know, it's a bit like a balloon blowing up inside your brain, and that put pressure on the surrounding brain and the and the skull. And obviously the skull doesn't move, so the pressure goes downward, it puts pressure on the midbrain.
