The first full day centers on global perspectives in stroke care, highlighting disparities, emergency evaluation, neuroimaging, and acute management strategies such as thrombolysis, thrombectomy, and ICH treatment. Sessions also explore visual dysfunctions, unanswered clinical questions, and the importance of stroke etiology and prevention, while case-based discussions bring practical insights into unusual causes, TIA management, and rehabilitation challenges. The day concludes with innovation-focused sessions that tie together advances in diagnosis, management, and patient care.
The second day emphasizes advanced stroke management and practical best practices, covering critical issues like blood pressure control in hyper-acute stroke, decompressive craniectomy, and the setup of dedicated stroke units. Case discussions on rare causes, subarachnoid hemorrhage, stroke mimics, and cardioembolic stroke deepen clinical knowledge, while sessions on cerebral venous thrombosis, neuropsychiatric impacts, and rehabilitation in resource-limited settings add breadth. The day wraps up with regional expert panels and the closing ceremony of the main symposium.
The third day, dedicated to medical professionals, addresses spasticity management with Botox, stroke unit protocols, and complication management, while also focusing on value-based care and neurological emergencies such as substance abuse-related complications and acute flaccid paralysis. The ASN regional meeting features engaging case-based discussions and a quiz, creating a collaborative learning environment that bridges clinical practice with ongoing research.
