Non-Neurologist Self Assessment of Emergency Neurology Proficiency and Interest in a Novel Intensive Stroke and Neurocritical Care Training Program: The X-CHANGE Program (P1.045)
Conclusions:Hospital based non-neurology physicians have significant exposure to critically ill neurological patients. Many are not comfortable with important fundamental skills, such as the neurological exam. There is strong interest in a proposed intensive training program emphasizing bedside teaching.

A call for formal telemedicine training during stroke fellowship
During the 20 years since US Food and Drug Administration approval of IV tissue plasminogen activator for acute ischemic stroke, vascular neurology consultation via telemedicine has contributed to an increased frequency of IV tissue plasminogen activator administration and broadened geographic access to the drug. Nevertheless, a growing demand for acute stroke coverage persists, with the greatest disparity found in rural communities underserved by neurologists. To provide efficient and consistent acute care, formal training in telemedicine during neurovascular fellowship is warranted. Herein, we describe our experiences in...

Comment: Telemedicine training during stroke fellowship
In 2009, the American Heart Association recommended the implementation of telemedicine within stroke systems of care.1 Telestroke services have expanded throughout the United States, and have led to improvements in access to care, recombinant tissue plasminogen activator utilization, and cost-effectiveness. Medical trainees must be educated to utilize these new technologies and health care delivery models. There is limited information on the training of telemedicine providers and what education is necessary. A recent article recommended telemedicine-related enhancements to Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Educati...

Different Clinical Manifestations of MELAS in a Single Family (P5.073)
Conclusions: In 1992, diagnostic criteria for MELAS included symptom onset prior to 40-years of age. Numerous case reports have found patients presenting with MELAS after age 40 with genetic confirmation of the mutation. Today, the criteria have been eased and a diagnosis of MELAS should be considered in the appropriate clinical setting at any age.Disclosure: Dr. Koshy has nothing to disclose.
