Which topic addresses recognition and management of stroke and TIA?

• A. Stroke (CVA)/ Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA)
• B. Stroke Diagnostic Tool
• C. Naloxone Nasal Instructions
• D. Pregnancy/ Childbirth/ Miscarriage

Answer: (C)

Recognizing stroke and TIA hinges on identifying sudden neurological symptoms and acting quickly to minimize brain damage. The topic that best covers both recognition and management is the Stroke (CVA)/ Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) topic, because it specifically trains responders to spot signs of a stroke, understand the urgency of time (last known well, onset window), and initiate appropriate actions like calling EMS, preparing for rapid transport, and monitoring patient status. Naloxone Nasal Instructions focus on reversing opioid overdoses, which is unrelated to stroke recognition. Pregnancy/Childbirth/Miscarriage covers obstetric emergencies, not stroke. A Stroke Diagnostic Tool might be used later in evaluation, but the core need—recognition and immediate management of stroke/TIA—belongs to the Stroke (CVA)/TIA topic.
