But anywayz... the first episode, by just
differentiating them into duration may not suffice, because we may
never know whether the current focal neurological deficits may be
due to a TIA or a full-blown stroke.
Hence, it is important to reduce all the risk factors the patient
have (assess through lab investigations I posted earlier).
Treat the high BP, treat the imbalance in glucose levels, check for
the source of the clot and expedite treatment as fast as
possible.
CT scanning will be in an urgent list, and the patient will be sent
for one and the results are almost immediate, less than 30
minutes.
