Question: Lorsque vous voyez un patient qui a subi un ICT,
l'hospitalisez-vous ou l'investiguez-vous en externe?

 Je n'ai pas trouve de bonnes references repondant a cette question.
Peut-etre aurez-vous de meilleures reponses que celles-ci... Martin.

absAbstract: 
To define practice patterns in the management of transient ischemic attacks
(TIAs), we surveyed practicing neurologists attending an educational
conference in San Francisco, evaluating management decisions in 2 TIA case
vignettes. In a vignette describing a hemispheric TIA 1 day prior with
ipsilateral bruit, 53% chose admission, 47% elected an outpatient work-up,
28% treated with intravenous heparin and 70% chose aspirin, reflecting the
disagreement about medical management of carotid stenosis in the literature.
There was more agreement in the second case, a posterior circulation TIA 1
day prior with atrial fibrillation, in which 84% chose hospital admission,
74% chose intravenous heparin and 90% treated with some form of
anticoagulation. There are areas of important practice variability in the
management of TIAs. Further research is justified to guide patient care
decisions in TIA patients.

.... 


Is hospitalization justified to expedite diagnostic evaluation and treatment
of TIA? There are no prospective data on this question. The specific type
and pattern of the TIA, the efficiency with which a patient can be
evaluated, and the patient's ability to return quickly if further symptoms
occur are all factors in this decision. The diagnostic evaluation of
patients seen within 1 week of a TIA should be completed within 1 week or
less. Hospitalization is often justified to expedite evaluation and lessen
the possibility of stroke. Some patients may be at increased risk of stroke
and warrant closer observation, while the physician may elect to treat
others with intravenous medication. The decision whether to hospitalize a
patient depends on that patient's individual circumstances.
