The Canadian Stroke Consortium is pleased to partner with Heart and Stroke Canada to host this webinar dedicated to the recently updated 2018 Canadian Stroke Best Practice Recommendations addressing hyperacute and acute stroke care. These Recommendations provide specific guidance for healthcare professionals on the management of stroke from the point of symptom onset, with an emphasis on the need for coordinated and collaborative approaches to patient care in the pre-hospital setting, in the Emergency Department, and when organizing and deploying hyperacute treatments, such as tPA and endovascular therapy.
During this webinar, participants will learn more about the recommendations, research, and practical approaches for the management of patients in the critical minutes and hours after stroke onset. The target audience is healthcare providers across all disciplines involved in stroke care, as well as stroke system leaders. Participants will hear directly from experts in this area and have an opportunity to ask questions. There is no charge to attend.
