@FawcettAdrian Interested in your perspective about this, as a stroke neurologist who always sticks around the angio suite - am I in the way? I like to be available for questions, discussion with anaesthesia, teaching, etc. Also just generally like to see what happens with our patient!

#stroke #medtwitter Q1: Why do stroke neurologists hang out in the angio suite during EVT cases? Q2: Can you name another procedure where a medical specialist will ride shotgun to tell a proceduralist what to do?

I’m generally a bit conservative/not a betting person, but once again, my prior tweet seems to be aging well @CBCOlympics @CBC @CBCNews @Devin_Heroux @swimswamnews @Braden_Keith #swammer #swimmingnerd

…CAN, US (Wave II), and AUS swimming trials next week…thank you, strategic week off work. Also, don’t forget the name “Summer McIntosh” - you heard it here first, Canada 🇨🇦 @CBCOlympics

I don’t tweet much, but this tweet definitely aged well. Lessons: 1) Summer McIntosh is a generational talent, and 2) I’m a huge swimming nerd. #cbcsports #cbcolympics #swimswam @swimswamnews #swimmingcanada

Finally having a paper accepted after 3 years of edits is 3% excitement about publication and 97% relief about never having to read it again.

…sometimes everything just “clicks” - what was initially a trauma recognized as possible LVO by @BC_EHS - onset to reperfusion 1h45m with NIHSS 18➡️3 on the table post-EVT. @VanIslandHealth stroke care in action - proud to be part of this team!

I teach that whenever you hear a colleague refer to a stroke as a "CVA" -- you can be certain that they know nothing about stroke! Well done @sashkind @kevinmd ! A PSA from a neurologist to the medical community kevinmd.com/blog/2022/01/a… via @kevinmd

Proud and thankful to see this work from my fellowship at @Stanford_Neuro published in @JSCVD2 - HIR is but one piece of the puzzle, but part of the growing armamentarium to help guide patient selection/transfer. #stroketwitter authors.elsevier.com/a/1e7Jg3lH44iX…

…there will always be false +/-…but, I see a lot of young stroke patients, and they are particularly prone to this bias - just last week a young stroke survivor cried in my clinic telling me how she was passed off as drunk and in fact she was d/c’d 2x with a cerebellar stroke.

@MicieliA_MD Drip and ship arrived with no LVO 🤨 I suspect it was not the bumpy ride to Victoria, and rather the pre-transfer tPA 💉

Gave a patient tPA this week and they got better.

@FawcettAdrian @AlexMuccilli @THP_hospital That’s awesome, I will! We are 🤞rolling out telestroke soon to our referring sites, but I secretly want it at our 2nd local hospital (think TGH setup, with CCU/CVICU/complex ICU but no neurology/stroke), and then eventually our Neuro/NSx site. Congrats!

English

Adrian Fawcett@FawcettAdrian·8 Haz

@AlexMuccilli @bladammd @THP_hospital It works well. Reviews have been positive. Patients, neurologists and ED staff have all bought in. DM/email me if you want any advice on how to set it up. 😊

English

Adam MacLellan MD FRCPC@bladammd·8 Haz

Are there community sites that do telestroke in their own ED? We don’t have on-site stroke attendings/residents overnight…bet we’d be more likely to be 📞, and decisions/DTN would be faster if we could consult via telestroke #stroketwitter #neurotwitter ja.ma/3fZdVVa

💯 - an idea of the eventual destination is great but clear guidance about how to safely get there when fully-vaccinated is necessary. Might also help with any residual pre-2nd (or 1st) dose hesitancy?

Isaac Bogoch@BogochIsaac

3/ Said another way...the vaccines are very effective (but of course not 100% perfect) & will help us return to doing things we once did. Practical & science-based individual-level guidance during this interim period where a growing # in 🇨🇦 are fully vaccinated would be helpful.
