One of the commonest reasons for high morbidity after acute stroke is due to the development of complications that result in secondary harm, both directly from the stroke itself and from the medical complications of neurological dysfunction. Prevention of these complications is therefore critical.

In this webinar, Prof. Christine Roffe (Keele University, UK) and Dr. Lina Palaiodimou (Attikon University Hospital, Greece) use an illustrative case to demonstrate the current state of both evidence and clinical practice for preventing these complications, such as deep vein thrombosis, aspiration pneumonia, and many others.

An interactive discussion among presenters, moderators, and participants will follow.
