@IElmenshawi @Tracey1milligan @maclaudiaa @KPobgyndoc @lizzysouth26 @BrighamBEI @WNGtweets @KenV54 @AngelikiVgontza @Marinos_S @MonicaDhakar It's not a thunderclap headache actually. Peak wasn't quick enough. Differential still wide however. Nice review of thunderclap headaches here : https://t.co/0RrMlttUAo (image from this article)

ICHD-3 has formal diagnostic criteria for primary thunderclap headache - 4.4

@Tracey1milligan @daviddodick @WeAreCanadiEM Never seen SNOOP- looks great! I was taught (ironically by an ID doc during prelim year) to be careful w/ "First ( new onset headaches/change in headaches), curst (w/ other focal neuro sxs) and worst (e.g. thunderclaps). Not SNOOP detailed but generally helpful.

@Tracey1milligan @Tracey1milligan, hx- more HA descriptors - intermittent vs persistent, quality, rapidity of onset, positional association, timing relative to the shaking, other features and previous HA history/tx. Any constitutional sx, tx for psoriasis? Exam wise - bruits? Skin/nails?

[Ilya Bragin @drbraginmd]

Nice course for any non critical care docs/APs that may need to cover the ICU.

@AngelikiVgontza @Tracey1milligan @GrahamHeadache MRA w/ gad is a great vascular study. Time of flight/non contrast MRA is limited. When the patient went for the non con CT typically a CTA would've been done for the reasons others mentioned - dissection, aneurysm, rcvs - then LP for xanthochromia. If negative dx made. #ichd-3

@realDonaldTrump great job opening up #telemedicine to everyone. We need help to cut the red tape and recognize state medical licenses across all states! Then we can really pool resources across states safely and remotely and allow physicians to provide service! #COVID19

[Ilya Bragin @drbraginmd]

Good move. Should've banned UK too. Wuhan ban early on was critical. Response slow but finally looks like @WhiteHouse is waking up. Must limit incoming cases and deal with outbreaks.
