It does happen - see hemodynamic stroke or global ischemic stroke - but it's pretty rare. On the other hand, hypotension is not unusual after a stroke, and I'm pretty sure that's what they are talking about here. In any case, your translation could be equally ambiguous.

Thank you SJLD I had a little doubt, although I have never heard of stroke due to hypotension.

patients who have had a stroke and are hypotensive - doesn't mean hypotension is a causative factor (like hypertension) in case you were wondering
