Management of stroke.

Abstract

This article outlines the current evidenced based practice for stroke care. It outlines many of the recommendations in the National Clinical Guidelines for Stroke published by the Royal College of Physicians. It also covers all aspects of multidisciplinary stroke care from initial assessment and acute treatment to rehabilitation strategies and management of complications. The article concludes with an examination of the latest evidence for secondary prevention of cerebrovascular disease.
