Congratulations!
• You have successfully treated Mr. Jones within the necessary 3 hour time window! If you have scored a ___ or higher, you are still in the running to become Chief of Staff – great job! If you have scored lower than a ___, perhaps the next stroke patient to come through the doors of St. Normal Hospital will have better results. Also, please realize that Mr. Jones’ journey is not over. He will have a 10-14 day stay in the ICU (where the rate of mortality from strokes is very high 2-12 days following the initial stroke) and then undergo physical therapy.
EMR – Scene C Act 4
• HHH Therapy
• Vasospasms
Clip the Aneurysm
• This procedure is highly invasive and should only be done when the aneurysm is located close to the surface of the brain and on younger patients. Please think carefully before proceeding with this procedure on this patient.
Return to Patient
Coil the Aneurysm
• Correct! This procedure is much less invasive and a better choice for this patient. Go forward with your treatment of this patient.
