This module explores cases of stroke/TIA ‘mimics,' where alternative presentations may present similarly to stroke/TIA.


20-25% of presentations with suspected stroke are actually 'stroke-mimics.' To ensure patients receive appropriate investigation and management, timely recognition of stroke-mimics or TIA- mimics is essential. This module explores how both stroke-mimics and TIA-mimics may present, with worked cases and questions.
