A stroke is a severe cerebrovascular condition that occurs as a result of impaired blood flow to the brain.
It is a time-critical medical emergency.
In 2015, 6.8% of all deaths in Australia were the result of stroke.
According to the Stroke Foundation, in 2017 approximately 475,000 Australians were living with the effects of a stroke.
Several strategies have been demonstrated to reduce stroke-related brain damage and long-term disability.
These include:
This module considers pre-hospital management of stroke. It aims to improve stroke knowledge in order to reduce time to treatment.
Ambulance officers and paramedics provide most pre-hospital care to patients who have had a stroke.
However, this module is designed to give all those involved in the emergency nursing, acute care, and rehabilitative care of stroke patients an insight into optimal care provision prior to hospital admission.
This module highlights recent research and reflects changes to stroke management following the release of the Stroke Foundation's Clinical Guidelines for Stroke Management 2017.
It also considers potential future developments in the pre-hospital management of a stroke.
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
