A stroke, or cerebrovascular accident, is an emergency medical condition characterized by an acute compromise of the cerebral perfusion or vasculature. The leading cause of ischemic stroke is hypertension whereas clotting disorders, carotid dissection, and illicit drug abuse are common causes in the younger populations. A quick diagnosis followed by prompt management needs to be set in motion by the interprofessional team members to improve outcomes for those with stroke. This activity reviews the etiology, presentation, evaluation, and management of cerebrovascular disease and reviews the role of the interprofessional team in evaluating, diagnosing, and managing the condition.
