Course overview

Strokes have a time-critical diagnosis which makes practicing the proper prehospital care important to ensure patients are receiving life-saving care. In this course, Dr. Eric Cortez discusses what a stroke is, what steps to take to identify a stroke, and how to prepare while transporting the patient to a hospital. By making sure a hospital is prepared to take on a stroke patient, EMS will be able to help shave off time from the occurrence to the time the patients are able to receive treatment. Dr. Cortez also discusses the types of strokes, their symptoms, and their various treatments.
