AbstractManaging neurological emergencies is an essential element of emergency physicians' armamentarium, irrelevant of the specific nature of their practice. The combination of evolving literature and advances in imaging fuel the rapidly changing standards of care, especially in high-stakes diagnoses such as stroke. Navigating the emergency neurology literature to stay abreast of the current updates is becoming more challenging with the sheer volume of publications, combined with the recent dominance of COVID-19 on the literature and media attention. This review article summarizes emergency neurology literature updates that can help you improve your care of these high-risk presentations; articles covering stroke, dizziness, intracerebral hemorrhage, head trauma imaging, headache, seizures, and COVID-19 are reviewed.Copyright © 2022 Elsevier Inc.
