 Include: 11 videos + 1 pdf, size: 3.51 GB  Target Audience: neurologists, neurosurgeon  Information: Patient data and referral patterns tell us community practitioners may be unaware of the recent advances in the diagnosis, treatment and management of ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke patients. It can be difficult for the busy practitioner to take time away from their practice to learn what is new, including the recent changes in the guidelines on acute stroke management and secondary stroke prevention. This activity aims to provide such practice guideline updates and review recently published clinical trial data.

1. Recognize the role of the emergency department in coordination with paramedics in the field and hyperacute triaging and care of stroke patients.
2. Examine the role of frontline neuroradiology imaging in acute stroke and paradigm in triaging patients for interventions.
3. Discuss the indication and care considerations for administering systemic thrombolytic treatments in acute ischemic stroke.
4. Review current indications for endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke and discuss nuances and challenges in patient selection and management.
5. Review current recommendations for diagnostic work up for stroke and discuss the diagnostic challenges when assessing for stroke etiology.
6. Discuss the role of multidisciplinary teams in the acute intervention, management and care of stroke patients.
7. Describe and discuss endovascular and surgical options for revascularization for stroke prevention.
8. Explain the role and timeframe for rehabilitation for motor recovery after stroke.
9. Discuss and review criteria for both surgical and endovascular options for patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysm.
