Saddichha S et al. – Emergency medical systems should implement a prehospital stroke protocol including the use of vital sign monitoring, point–of–care clinical diagnostics and advance forewarning systems. Geriatric clinics attending to the elderly age group, especially located in rural areas, with better identification of stroke and coma as medical emergencies, either through neuroimaging or clinical diagnostic facilities, will definitely improve outcomes. As seizures form a large chunk of neurological emergencies, genetic testing and counseling to detect hereditary causes could identify and keep most victims on regulated treatment in order to reduce adverse outcomes.
