Show transcript:

Dr. Greg Cooper:

Hi, this is Greg Cooper. I just finished interviewing Sara Hassani for this week's Neurology Podcast. For today's Neurology minutes, Sara, I'm hoping you can tell us the main points of your paper.

Dr. Sara Hassani:

I would say that the central message of this paper is that paraprocedural neurologic complications, they're very common, and they may actually be as high as the third leading cause of mortality, and yet very few healthcare providers realize this. And furthermore, few healthcare providers are adequately prepared to discuss the risks of the various procedures with patients and/or their family members.

Dr. Greg Cooper:

Thank you for that summary and all your work on this topic. Please check out this week's podcast to hear the full interview, and read the full article published in Neurology, Paraprocedural Brain Health. Thank you.
