What this Trial Is About
This study will assess the sensitivity and specificity of the bedside examination algorithm performed by ED physicians. Finally, it aims to identify predictors of a central cause of the symptoms. This will consequently reduce the rate of misdiagnosis as well as the costs and length of stay due to inappropriate neuroimaging.
