What this Trial Is About
Patients presenting a Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) and admitted to the Emergency Department should be referred to a neurovascular specialist. In recent years, several hospitals have established TIA clinics. These units are day hospitals where all the necessary examinations are performed. Access to this expertise has proven beneficial in reducing cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, particularly the risk of early recurrence. Unfortunately, this access is limited by issues of medical demographics and unequal access to the healthcare system. In practice, this ideal care is not always possible. A portion of the TIA population is at low risk, and diagnostic and therapeutic interventions are limited, not always requiring neurovascular expertise. The hypothesis of this research is that the management of a patient who has suffered a TIA (additional examinations, treatment, referral) is not linked to their cardiovascular risk and that the performance of additional examinations and therapies is incomplete.
