Different Strokes: A Modern Guide to Acute Stroke Management

This educational activity provides a comprehensive, evidence-based overview of acute ischemic stroke care, guiding learners from the initial emergency department evaluation through inpatient diagnostic workups and secondary prevention. The curriculum covers the foundational steps of clinical assessment, including NIHSS scoring and stroke localization, alongside the interpretation of acute neuroimaging modalities like CT Perfusion and MRI to make time-sensitive reperfusion decisions. Furthermore, the activity provides an in-depth review of the 2026 AHA Acute Ischemic Stroke Guideline updates concerning eligibility for intravenous thrombolytics and endovascular thrombectomy. Finally, learners will explore targeted inpatient etiologic workups utilizing the TOAST criteria and learn to develop etiology-specific secondary stroke prevention strategies, all practically applied through an interactive, complex case study.
