About this episode
Update your management of stroke and TIA in primary care. Stroke neurologist, Chris Favilla MD ( University of Pennsylvania ), walks us through the plumbing of the brain, so we can identify ischemic risks in stroke and TIA patients to prevent recurrences. Learn factors that make a TIA high risk, which imaging studies to order, new research around aspirin dosing, dual antiplatelets, DOACs, cardiac monitoring and more!
