The answer would be TIA

Transient Ischemic Attack or TIA is a sudden deficient supply of blood to the brain lasting a short time. This will cause the loss or reduction of function of the affected brain area. The symptoms should disappear <24 hours to have it diagnosed as TIA. If the symptoms persist >24 hours, the diagnosis would be RIND or stroke.
