Ischemic strokes account for approximately 80% of all strokes, and can be further broken down into two subtypes: thrombotic, also called cerebral thrombosis; and embolic, termed cerebral embolism.
Another name for a transient ischemic attack is a mini stroke.

There are two major kinds of stroke, ischemic and hemorrhagic. In an ischemic stroke a blood vessel becomes blocked, usually by a blood clot and a portion of the brain becomes deprived of oxygen and will stop functioning. A hemorrhagic stroke occurs when a blood vessel that carries oxygen and nutrients to the brain burst and spills blood into the brain. When this happens, a portion of the brain becomes deprived of oxygen and will stop functioning.

ischemic stroke
The most common type of stroke in older people is an ischemic stroke, which occurs when a blood clot blocks blood flow to the brain. This can lead to brain cell damage due to the lack of oxygen and nutrients. Early recognition and treatment are crucial in improving outcomes for individuals who experience an ischemic stroke.
Ischemic stroke, or often, an ischemic transient attack, or TIA.
No, as given in the name, a Transient Ischemic Attack or TIA is "transient". So you do not die from TIA. However, a TIA can progress or lead to a full Stroke. You can die from a Stroke.
A stroke can occur in two ways. In an ischemic stroke, a blood clot blocks or plugs a blood vessel or artery in the brain. About 80 percent of all strokes are ischemic. In an hemorrhagic stroke, a blood vessel in the brain breaks and bleeds into the brain. About 20 percent of strokes are hemorrhagic.

A mini stroke is called a TIA or trans ischemic attack and yes one can occur after a CVA (cerebrovascular attack) or severe stroke
