Stroke and Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA)
Posted: July 27, 2012 Filed under: Podcasts 1 Comment »In this episode, we will discuss the diagnosis and treatment of stroke and transient ischemic attack (TIA). The ED is the front line in stroke care so we need to know how to work up this chief complaint. We’ll go over how to recognize the signs and symptoms of a stroke, how to get a rapid and complete history, how to screen patients for contraindications to thrombolytics, and how to catch a few stroke mimics.
Also- today is the 1 year anniversary of the first episode of EM Basic. Thank you to all the listeners out there who have made this project a success.
