Description
Course Description: Emergency Department Management of Stroke is the perfect course to guide practitioners on current evidenced-based stroke care for both the acute ischemic and hemorrhagic patient. Acute stroke management begins with Emergency Medical Services and ends when the stroke patient is transferred from the Emergency Department. So much responsibility, so many tasks to perform, with so little time, to prevent worsening of the neurological insult and give your patients a chance to return to their pre-stroke lives, that what Emergency Department Management of Stroke is all about.
