Words from Marc Fischer, President of WSO, February 2021

25 Jan 2021

As most of us around the world continue to grapple with the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic it is important that we maintain our ability to provide high quality and timely health care for our patients, especially those with stroke. Our ability to do so has been challenged in the current environment and different adaptations to the crisis have been implemented across the world. Evaluating and treating patients with an acute stroke remains a high priority to improve the outcome of the initial stroke and to implement appropriate secondary prevention measures. In partnership with American Heart/American Stroke Association, the WSO is working on an updated guidance document to provide suggestions as to how to maintain quality care during the pandemic. These will appear in print shortly. If the WSO, can be of help to you or your institution, do not hesitate to call upon us.
