1/ Awhile ago, on a triage call: “I’ve got a guy here, pretty young, came in looking terrible. GCS 4, we intubated him. Scan shows a big bleed. ICH score 4. Not sure much you’ll be able to do, but need to transfer him.” A #tweetorial about the ICH score. @MedTweetorials

Because writing "I dunno.... Looks symmetric. It's probably a metabolic thing" in the chart is generally frowned upon. Love this. pubs.rsna.org/doi/pdf/10.114… #neurotwitter

1/ In early residency, I was in a family meeting. “Unfortunately, your 55yo loved one has suffered a very large stroke affecting a large portion of the brain. Surgery would reduce the change of death, but not the disability from the stroke.” True or False? Vote below

#NeuroPostItPearl #21 1/ Every now and then I'll be on a triage call where a patient is likely peri-herniation and the hypertonic saline or mannitol is "going to come from pharmacy" which means these are not readily available and thus worthless. No worries!
