I was very keen to read this book—mainly because I have heard one of the authors state publicly that stroke patients are being transported by air ambulance to emergency rooms in parts of California and I was wondering whether he would advocate this in print. Sadly the nearest he got was “The message to the public is simple: the goal is to take the patient to the emergency room as fast as possible using emergency medical transportation and transfer the patient to a hospital that has brain imaging tests available on a 24 hour a day 7 day a week basis.” Not quite, but the tenor of the book is described —controversial, not overtly dangerous but rather premature, and, for most parts of the United Kingdom, a work of fiction (at least for the moment). It is one of those slimline varieties meant for the white coat pocket and is obviously aimed at the emergency room doctor eagerly awaiting an acute stroke patient to be flown in, scanner and thrombolytic infusion ready to go. The relevant chapter is right in the middle of the book and for anyone involved in the day to day care of stroke patients it is fantastic, just like the famous “brain attack!’ episode of the television series “ER”. There are tables describing how to monitor patients, how to administer TPA and how to set up labetalol or sodium nitroprusside infusions for hypertension poststroke. Sandwiched between are rather more ordinary notes on prevention, stroke units (one page), transient ischaemic attacks, and diagnosis of the stroke syndromes plus the basic management of subarachnoid haemorrhage and intracranial haemorrhage (with a rather worrying table on the acute management of haemorrhage post-thrombolysis !).https://ashcroftcreative.com/images/3ld1-isuzu-manual.xml

Perhaps the most practical chapter is on the diagnosis and evaluation of patients with stroke which is full of helpful tables but again basically designed as a screening tool for patients suitable for thrombolysis. The text is full of “Americanisms” such as “bronchopulmonary toilet” which I found very amusing and kept me reading in places rather like a Bill Bryson. The worst chapter is on the imaging of the brain and blood vessels and here the book could have been much better. Most of the CT brain images are overexposed and on black and white paper. Although there are arrows indicating to the reader where to look, most of the scans are uninterpretable. Obviously this is a key area in making treatment decisions with thrombolytic drugs and I was disappointed that this was not done better. Unfortunately the last few chapters are brief add-ons and could have been left out—a rather impractical section on neuroprotection and a miserly three pages covering rehabilitation and discharge planning. This book rides on the edge of the evidence and is certainly the “Californian way”. The authors are to be congratulated for their campaigning zeal for the emergency management of stroke which some of us hope will become more widespread. However, it could be argued that at the present time a more useful practical stroke guide would cover how to set up a neurovascular clinic and stroke unit, how to overcome resistance to change, how to participate in or set up large multicentre trials etc. Whether you read this book will largely depend on your point of view.

Results The key BP target before starting alteplase (t-PA) is Conclusions BP targets for the proper management of stroke vary by chronological stage of stroke and by stroke subtype. Furthermore, consideration should be given to control of BP variability, especially in the acute phases of stroke, as it may play a role in conferring longer term outcomes.

There is no evidence to support the prophylactic use of anticonvulsant medications in patients with acute stroke and there is some evidence to suggest possible harm with negative effects on neural recovery.https://www.dermatina100.gr/images/bosch-washer-troubleshooting-manual.pdf They should complete NCCT and offer intravenous alteplase as appropriate and then rapidly transfer the patient to a CSC for more advanced imaging and consideration for EVT.Refer to Box 4C and 5C. Note: if there are signs of hemorrhage on initial CT images there is no need to proceed to CTP imaging as part of initial imaging and CTA should be completed based on the clinical judgement of the treating physician. Choice of imaging modality should be based on most immediate availability and local resources. Refer to Section 3 of this module for further details regarding EMS management. Endovascular thrombectomy may be considered despite anticoagulation if patients are otherwise eligible. These can complicate management of stroke. Signs and symptoms that may explain the cause of the stroke or predict later complications (such as space-occupying infarction, bleeding, or recurrent stroke) and medical conditions such as hypertension or the presence of a coagulopathy, will have an impact on treatment decisions. An efficient and focused assessment is required to understand the needs of each patient. Brain imaging is required to guide management, including the selection of time-sensitive acute stroke treatments. A CT scan or magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is essential to differentiate between ischemic stroke and intracerebral hemorrhage, and stroke mimics, since clinicians may disagree on the clinical diagnosis of stroke (versus not stroke) in about 20 percent of patients. At the same time, this is an area where clinicians often seek guidance from stroke specialists. The recommendations for this area emphasize caution and diligence in monitoring and treating extremely high blood pressure in the first hours after stroke onset.www.caslyn.co.za/wp-content/plugins/formcraft/file-upload/server/content/files/162702ebfe98c9---boss-fuzz-fz-5-manual.pdf Specify in your results which type of scan (CT or CTA, separately or combined) was being measured and reported Standard assessments for patients with suspected acute stroke include a neurological examination, monitoring of vital signs, blood work, imaging and cardiovascular investigations, dysphagia screens and seizure assessment. The percentage of stroke mimics among patients presenting to the emergency department with acute symptoms has been estimated to be approximately 30 (Goyal et al. 2016, Merino et al. 2013). Neurovascular Imaging A non-contrast CT scan is considered the imaging standard to be used initially to identify acute ischemic stroke and to rule out intracranial hemorrhage. CT scans are quick to perform, easy to tolerate, and are known to be very reliable for the detection of intracerebral hemorrhage. Early detection of hemorrhage is essential since the presence of blood in the brain or subarachnoid space is the main contraindication for the administration of aspirin, anticoagulants and thrombolytic therapy. Early imaging is particularly important for patients who may be potential candidates for thrombolytic therapy, since it has a narrow therapeutic window for administration. Wardlaw et al. (2004) found that a computed tomography (CT) scan for all patients with suspected stroke on admission to hospital was the most cost-effective strategy, despite the increased cost of scans being performed during “off hours”. The higher costs were offset by savings realized through decreased lengths of hospital stay. CT angiography (CTA) should be performed as part of the initial acute stroke CT imaging protocol. It is fast, simple and helps to identify patients with small core infarcts (ASPECTS 6 or higher) in the anterior circulation, who should be considered for endovascular therapy.dakotaterritorycustomhomes.com/ckfinder/userfiles/files/consew-sewing-machine-repair-manuals.pdf Either multiphase or dynamic CTA is recommended over single-phase CTA, as the former can be used to assess for both intracranial arterial occlusion and also pial arterial collateral circulation (Menon et al. 2015). Evidence of adequate pial collaterals may predict better response to reperfusion and outcomes in acute ischemic stroke patients (Christoforidis et al. 2005). CTA is well-tolerated with a very low risk of allergic reaction or renal impairment from contrast administration, and does not pharmacologically interact with t-PA. CTP has been used in recent trials of endovascular therapy to identify patients who were candidates for treatment. In the EXTEND-IA trial, (Campbell et al. 2015), inclusion required a 20 mismatch between core infarct and ischemic penumbra identified using CTP. Due to variability in vendor software, specific CBV volume cut-offs for core infarct size is not standardized. The use of CTP for acute stroke patients should be reserved for centres with well-established CTP protocols and experience in interpreting CTP, or the use of quantitative CTP software, and must not substantially delay decisions for acute stroke treatments. While CT scans are recommended for initial brain imaging following stroke, there are cases where magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with diffusion-weighted sequences (DWI) may be superior. MRI has been shown to be more sensitive in detection of the early changes associated with ischemia, especially in patients with small infarcts. Using the results from 8 studies, Brazzelli et al. (2009) reported that the sensitivity of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may be higher than CT scans for the identification of ischemic stroke (99 vs. 39), although the authors questioned the generalizability of their findings. If an MRI is available and performed in place of CT, enhanced imaging in the form of DWI, GRE and FLAIR is indicated. Brunser et al.https://www.helpfulhunks.com.au/wp-content/plugins/formcraft/file-upload/server/content/files/162702ed30b2ad---boss-fs-5u-manual-1.pdf (2013) included 842 patients admitted to the Emergency Department with a suspected ischemic stroke. Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) examinations were performed for all patients. For patients with a final diagnosis of stroke, the sensitivity of DWI in detecting ischemic stroke was 90 (95 CI 87.9 to 92.6), and specificity was 97 (95 CI 91.8 to 99.0). Cardiovascular Investigations Atrial fibrillation (AF) is commonly diagnosed post-stroke, and is of particular concern due to its role in forming emboli. Sposato et al. (2015) included the results from 11 studies in which cardiac monitoring was initiated in the ED. An estimated 7.7 of patients, without a history of AF, were newly diagnosed. In the same study, it was found that ECG monitoring beyond the baseline assessment resulted in the identification of additional cases of AF in 2.3-14.9 of the population (Suissa et al. 2012). The use of serial ECG assessments over the first 72 hours following stroke can be an effective means of diagnosing AF. For example, Douen et al.(2008) reported there was no significant difference in detection rates between cardiac monitoring groups. AF was identified in 15 new patients using serial ECG and in 9 new patients using a Holter monitor. The majority of these cases were identified within 72 hours (83). The use of a transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is indicated when there is suspected cardiac embolism involvement. Of these, the abnormality was identified by TEE in 10 cases and in 3 cases using TTE. TEE confirmed the potential cardiac source in 34 patients, but also detected a potential cardioembolic source in an additional 80 patients. Acute Blood Pressure Management In the CATIS trial (He et al. 2014), 4071 patients with acute ischemic stroke were randomized to receive or not receive antihypertensive therapy during hospitalization.https://www.yoursurveysurveyors.co.uk/wp-content/plugins/formcraft/file-upload/server/content/files/162702ee175a7f---boss-fv-300h-manual.pdf Two Cochrane reviews have examined the potential benefits of artificially raising and lowering blood pressure with vasoactive drugs within the first week of stroke. In both reviews, the focus of most of the included studies was blood pressure reduction. Treatment was associated with significant early and late reductions in SBP and DBP, but was not associated with significant reduction in the risk of death or a poor outcome within one month, or the end of follow-up. The results from the blood pressure-lowering arm of the ENCHANTED trial, when released, will provide additional information to guide patient management. Glucose Management The presence of hyperglycemia may be of particular concern among patients without a history of premorbid diabetes. Among 161 patients with pre-morbid diabetes, the odds of poor outcome were not increased significantly for patients with persistent hyperglycemia, or among patients with hyperglycemia at 24 hours, compared with patients with persistent normoglycemia. However, among 587 non-diabetics, patients with persistent hyperglycemia experienced significantly worse outcomes compared to those with persistent normoglycemia. The odds of a good functional outcome at 30 days, minimal disability at 90 days or neurological improvement over 7 days were significantly reduced compared with patients with persistent normoglycemia, while the odds of 90-day mortality and parenchymal hemorrhage were increased significantly. Since initial hyperglycemia has been associated with poor stroke outcome, several trials have evaluated the potential benefit of tight blood glucose control early following stroke. The trial was stopped prematurely due to slow enrolment. More recently, Rosso et al. (2012) randomized 120 patients to receive intravenous administration of insulin (IIT) on a continuous basis or subcutaneous administration (every 4 hours) for 24 hours (SIT).Please contact us to resolve this.www.daisy-book.com/userfiles/files/consew-sewing-machine-repair-manual.pdf That is usually the journal article where the information was first stated.

Cite article The use of Clinical Guidelines, based on standardised best practice, have been shown to be capable of supporting improvements in quality and consistency in healthcare and is considered one of the main ways that evidence-based medicine can be implemented.They can cover any aspect of a condition and may include recommendations about providing information and advice, prevention, diagnosis, treatment and longer-term management and are designed to support the decision-making processes in patient care. There is evidence that the following characteristics contribute to their use: inclusion of specific recommendations, sufficient supporting evidence, a clear structure and an attractive lay out. In the process of formulating recommendations, implicit norms of the target users should be taken into account. Guidelines should be developed within a structured and coordinated programme by a credible central organisation.Not every patient or situation fits neatly into a guideline. Guidelines can not always cover every eventuality and each patient's circumstance needs to be taken into consideration when a treatment is decided upon. Recommendations should be viewed as statements that inform the clinician, the patient and any other user, and not as rigid rules. An overview of 41 systematic reviews found that the most promising approach was to use a variety of interventions including audit and feedback, reminders, and educational outreach. The effective interventions often involved complicated procedures and were always an addition to the provision of guidelines. None of the studies used the simplest intervention ie that is, changing the wording of the guidelines.Both timeframe and pathway for this process is not restrictive and often overlaps with the long-term management phase.Implementation Science. 2012 Dec;7(1):62.

It becomes a challenge for them to tease out the important information that will help guide them through the care of the patient they have right before them. By providing only essential information in a standard and user-friendly layout, it assists clinicians in making real-time decisions quickly and effectively with actual step-by-step guides on specific issues relevant to the care of stroke patients. The use of this practical handbook is instinctive with the topics arranged in chronological order, simulating the actual clinical scenario from a prehospital setting, consultation in the emergency room, admission to the hospital, to secondary prevention in the clinic. With contributions from over 30 stroke experts in Southeast Asia, this handbook is widely applicable in different medical settings and will certainly appeal to stroke specialists, general practitioners, nurses, paramedics, and medical students alike. While an indispensable guide for primary care clinicians, including family practitioners and medical internists who often assume the care of stroke patients without the aid of a neurologist (primarily in underserved areas), the information contained herein is also an invaluable resource to all physicians in training, especially residents and fellows in neurology, cardiology, and surgery, among others. Stroke Essentials for Primary Care: A Practical Guide provides the latest diagnostic and treatment information that allows for greater clinical confidence. Designed to allow easy access to essential information, most chapters include a quick summary of their content and conclusions. Chapters review information on such topics as distinguishing features of presentation, rapid determination of stroke type, prevention strategies, long-term complications, and special topics that may apply to specific populations. Targeted and easy to read, Stroke Essentials for Primary Care: A Practical Guide is an essential resource for all practitioners in primary care medicine and specialty physicians in training.
