Emergency Stroke Care: Advance and Controversies, Volume I Reviews New Stroke Protocols That Promise Improved Outcomes, and Progress Toward Prevention and Recognizing Stroke Symptoms

We continue to practice medicine in an amazing era of progress in the care of the acute stroke patient

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) April 11, 2016 -- EB Medicine, publisher of Emergency Medicine Practice, has released its newest publication, Emergency Stroke Care: Advances and Controversies. This new resource was developed to provide healthcare practitioners, doctors, stroke specialists, and stroke coordinators with the most current rules for treating and managing acute stroke, currently the fifth-leading cause of death for Americans. Clinical trials and innovation have spurred novel tools and treatments, from advanced imaging techniques to mechanical thrombectomy to new applications for long-used therapies.

“We continue to practice medicine in an amazing era of progress in the care of the acute stroke patient,” write the authors of Emergency Stroke Care: Advances and Controversies. The book, developed by EB Medicine, is a comprehensive review of the latest research findings, stroke treatment and clinical techniques, giving prehospital providers and emergency clinicians the evidence and assurance they need to make sound decisions at the point of care.

“We’ve seen stroke centers emerge over the past 20 years, along with protocols and national initiatives that have improved recognition and treatment of acute stroke patients,” says Andy Jagoda, MD, FACEP, Medical Director, Mount Sinai Hospital, New York, NY and Editor-in-Chief of Emergency Medicine Practice.

Dr. Jagoda, who is nationally recognized for his work in neurological emergencies, describes Emergency Stroke Care: Advances and Controversies as “a clinically relevant update on the state of the art in diagnosing and managing transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) and stroke.”
Highlights of the book include:
• The latest research on acute stroke imaging (CT, CTA, CT perfusion, 4D CT, and multimodality neuroimaging);
• A full analysis of current evidence on mechanical thrombectomy with stentriever;
• New findings to support expanded use of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator;
• Clinical pathways that reflect a new-and-improved spectrum of treatment options for TIA and acute stroke; and
• Best practices in stroke systems of care and stroke center standards.
The stroke book also qualifies for eight hours of stroke CME credit and is available via print and online download through EB Medicine.
