Transient Ischemic Attacks: Transient Trouble Or Action-Warranted Attacks?
Oct 20031,261 views Atransient ischemic attack (TIA) is a neurologic deficit caused by ischemia to the brain that, by classic definition, completely resolves within 24 hours. Although there is complete resolution of signs and symptoms, the incident is understandably alarming for the patient and his or her family, raising numerous questions and sometimes panicked responses. In contrast, because patients are usually asymptomatic by the time they present to the ED, many physicians are "underwhelmed" by the situation and do not react with appropriate immediacy.
