Stroke Management for EMS - I Think There's Been a Glitch

Nothing describes the symptoms and presentation of a person experiencing a Stroke better than "Glitch."  In this class we will cover the wide variety of stroke symptoms and how EMS providers can recognize patient's experiencing a stroke quickly.  We will cover the different assessment methods used to determine a Large Vessel Occlusion (LVO) Stroke and why it matters for this to be determined in the field.  Finally, we will discuss transport decisions and where to take patients to receive the right type of care for the best possible outcome.
