Abstract

 In an emergency room,attending doctors encounter various neurological symptoms and signs on a daily basis. Every doctor aims to identify abnormal findings,achieve a diagnosis,and offer appropriate management. In Japan,currently,only approximately 35% of leading emergency centers have neurologists,neurosurgeons,and psychiatrists performing exclusive functions. Therefore,the initial or tentative diagnosis of a patient with cerebral symptoms is dealt by emergency physicians. For instance,in a patient presenting with hemiparesis,prompt detection of an acute cerebral infarction,which has a highly limited therapeutic window for thrombolytic therapy,is crucial. However,this symptom may also be observed in some cases of severe hypoglycemia,psychogenic reaction (conversion hysteria),etc. This report describes a strategy for accurate diagnosis and medical treatment of neurological abnormalities at the emergency rooms of hospitals,which are expected to provide this support.
