Overview:
COURSE DESCRIPTION
This course presents an annual update of major advances in the treatment of cerebrovascular disease. The first session reviews two topics in point-counterpoint format: the role of mechanical thrombectomy in patients with large core infarction at presentation, and revascularization approaches for the posterior circulation. The second session reviews updated guidelines for subarachnoid hemorrhage management by various professional societies, cerebrovascular injury after chiropractic manipulation, a recap of the landmark stroke studies over the past year, and the utility of transcranial doppler for stroke diagnostics. The keynote speech, delivered by Dr. Patrick Lyden, addresses Cerebroprotection and the Future of Stroke Therapy. Each presentation addresses relevant background, existing knowledge gaps, and clinical trial information.
EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
• Contrast the pros and cons of mechanical thrombectomy for large core infarction at presentation.
• Explain the risks of cerebrovascular injury due to chiropractic manipulation.
• Implement protocols for subarachnoid hemorrhage management recommended by professional societies.
• Compare contemporary indications and strategies for revascularization of the posterior circulation.
• Understand the utility of transcranial doppler in stroke diagnostics.
• Define the current approaches and unmet needs of cerebral protection.
• Review the latest guidelines for stroke management.
• Critique the limitations of the studies referenced above.
• Formulate evidence-based treatment algorithms for the management of patients with these conditions.
TARGET AUDIENCE
This course is intended for neurosurgeons, neurologists, emergency department physicians, primary care providers, nurses and other allied healthcare professionals.
