I’m generally a bit conservative/not a betting person, but once again, my prior tweet seems to be aging well @CBCOlympics @CBC @CBCNews @Devin_Heroux @swimswamnews @Braden_Keith #swammer #swimmingnerd.
…CAN, US (Wave II), and AUS swimming trials next week…thank you, strategic week off work. Also, don’t forget the name “Summer McIntosh” - you heard it here first, Canada 🇨🇦 @CBCOlympics.

I don’t tweet much, but this tweet definitely aged well. Lessons: 1) Summer McIntosh is a generational talent, and 2) I’m a huge swimming nerd. #cbcsports #cbcolympics #swimswam @swimswamnews #swimmingcanada.

The ACT trial results are out. TNK is not inferior to rtPA at achieving excellent functional outcomes without significant safety issues. #ESOC2022 @SVINJournal @StrokeAHA_ASA

…sometimes everything just “clicks” - what was initially a trauma recognized as possible LVO by @BC_EHS - onset to reperfusion 1h45m with NIHSS 18➡️3 on the table post-EVT. @VanIslandHealth stroke care in action - proud to be part of this team!.

While strokes do occur suddenly, we know enough about risk factors that they are as much accidents as heart attacks, gonorrhea, and the common cold.

Proud and thankful to see this work from my fellowship at @Stanford_Neuro published in @JSCVD2 - HIR is but one piece of the puzzle, but part of the growing armamentarium to help guide patient selection/transfer. #stroketwitter

Proud to have been a part of this excellent work 👍.
A study conducted by the Stanford Stroke Center shows patients with hand & arm weakness after stroke can benefit from using a virtual reality gaming device. #stroke #neurology #virtualreality

…there will always be false +/-…but, I see a lot of young stroke patients, and they are particularly prone to this bias - just last week a young stroke survivor cried in my clinic telling me how she was passed off as drunk and in fact she was d/c’d 2x with a cerebellar stroke.
Neuro: “He’s inside the window!”.Entire ED: “He’s drunk!”.

…week off work and it’s CAN, USA, AUS trials this week - I can’t be the only one streaming on multiple devices and annoying their significant other with swim commentary? #swammer #SwimTrials21 @swimswamnews @SwimmingCanada

Are there community sites that do telestroke in their own ED? We don’t have on-site stroke attendings/residents overnight…bet we’d be more likely to be 📞, and decisions/DTN would be faster if we could consult via telestroke #stroketwitter #neurotwitter

💯 - an idea of the eventual destination is great but clear guidance about how to safely get there when fully-vaccinated is necessary. Might also help with any residual pre-2nd (or 1st) dose hesitancy?.
3/ Said another way. the vaccines are very effective (but of course not 100% perfect) & will help us return to doing things we once did. Practical & science-based individual-level guidance during this interim period where a growing # in 🇨🇦 are fully vaccinated would be helpful.

Could VR stroke recovery be an alternative to in-person (esp. in resource-limited areas)? Proud to have worked on this during fellowship at @Stanford_Neuro #stroketwitter #strokerecovery.
