Update on implantable loop recorders for secondary stroke prevention.
Abstract Implantable loop recorders are used to detect abnormal arrhythmias in patients with unexplained syncope.

Using the Gugging Swallowing Screen (GUSS) for Dysphagia Screening in Acute Stroke Patients.
Abstract Aspiration pneumonia from dysphagia following stroke presents significant morbidity and mortality in that population. Dysphagia screening before oral intake has been a standard of care for years, but there is a lack of consensus on the best screening tool. The Gugging Swallowing Screen (GUSS) is presented as a potentially better alternative to other dysphagia screens due to its safer progression of oral intake, more thorough evaluation of swallowing, and ability to enable earlier nutrition.

Percutaneous Closure of the Left Atrial Appendage for Stroke Prevention in Atrial Fibrillation: An Alternative to Lifelong Anticoagulation?
Atrial fibrillation is an important risk factor for thromboembolic stroke and it significantly increases the risk of stroke. The left atrial appendage (LAA) is the most common site of thrombus formation in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation, and the recent applications of percutaneous LAA closure devices offer a promising alternative for patients who are unable to tolerate lifelong anticoagulation. Critical care nurses who understand the procedures and are familiar with the various devices used for LAA closure will be well prepared to provide optimum care and appropriate education for these patients.
