This symposium will cover updates, perspectives, and paradigm shifts on the management of stroke and will elaborate on the newest guidelines and innovations on new technological advances that improve treatment of stroke in the young. Leading investigators will share critical updates on prevention strategies for strong outreach services, provide healthcare providers the opportunity to update their clinical practice, and learn more effective ways to diagnose and treat patients with stroke. This course is intended for healthcare providers including neurologists, primary care providers (IM, FM), APP, RN, PharmD., and Allied Health Associates. Topics Include: Current guidelines for primary and secondary prevention strategy for stroke and transient ischemic attack (TIA) patients, utilizing basic acute stroke care protocols to improve patient outcomes, treatment eligibility for acute stroke patients for potential acute IV thrombolytic and endovascular therapy, new data on demographics and etiology of stroke in younger patients, and evidence based data on ED based tele-stroke and tele-mobile EMS.
