Patients with Ataxia suffer from balance impairments, which limit their functional range and decrease their quality of life. The difficulty of ambulation is related to the patients' motor impairments since their steps may be staggered and lack a clear cadence. Brain tumours, chemical toxicity, infection, stroke, and degenerative disorders are only a few of the many reasons of cerebellar ataxia. Join us LIVE as Dr. Vinit Banga, the Chief of Neurovascular Intervention at the B.L. Kapoor Memorial Hospital in Delhi, discusses the diagnosis, investigations, and therapy of ataxia.

Approach to a Case of Ataxia

Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease in the elderly, with men being more affected. There is currently no cure for the disease, and there are no laboratory tests, biomarkers, or imaging studies to confirm Parkinson's disease. As a result, it is important for clinicians to analyze patients' motor features effectively and efficiently to diagnose cases of Parkinson's disease. Further to that, with the increasing prevalence of PD in the world, and its difficult to diagnose and cure features, it is critical to understand its pathophysiology, diagnosis, and Mx with Expert Dr. Vinit Banga (Senior Consultant, Neurology & Neurovascular Intervention). This is part -2 and you can catch up on part 1 by going to the replay section.

The treatment of acute ischemic stroke has changed dramatically in the last two decades, with the introduction of intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) and, more recently, endovascular thrombectomy (EVT). Treatment within 60 minutes of symptom onset offers great outcomes, with much lower rates of morbidity and mortality in patients, according to recent studies. The Golden Hour refers to the extraordinary 60-minute window that exists between the start of symptoms and the onset of treatment. Let's hear it from Dr. Vinit Banga about the protocols that need to be followed to ensure rapid treatment in patients with stroke which will yield excellent results.

Stroke: Management in the Golden Hour

Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS) remains a leading cause of death and long-term disability worldwide, where every minute is critical in determining patient outcomes. Timely thrombolytic therapy has transformed the management of AIS, significantly improving functional recovery when administered appropriately. However, clinical decisions surrounding thrombolysis often involve balancing benefits and risks across diverse patient scenarios. This National Panel Discussion brings together leading stroke experts to explore the current paradigm of thrombolysis in AIS, with a special focus on the role of alteplase and evidence-based decision-making in real-world clinical practice. Through expert insights and interactive discussions, the session aims to equip clinicians with practical strategies to optimize acute stroke care and improve patient outcomes.
