Heart Brain Clinic
Manage episode 379986398 series 1265341
Although strokes are complex events involving both the brain and heart, diagnosis and treatment of potential strokes is not always managed by brain and heart doctors working together. Because of this, patients may be having unnecessary procedures and risking future health events. Ekaterina Bakradze, M.D., a stroke neurologist, and Mustafa Ahmed, M.D., an interventional cardiologist, discuss the complexity of stroke diagnoses and management, emphasizing the importance of a multidisciplinary team. The doctors explain how one common cause of stroke called PFO – a hole in the heart – is not always the culprit of a patient’s neurological health condition. Learn more about their work at the UAB Heart Brain Clinic.
