The risk for disabling stroke is greatest in the period immediately following a transient ischemic attack (TIA), thus, TIA is a medical emergency. A universities medical center's emergency department-based TIA evaluation and management program is presented as an example of the pragmatic enactment of current guidelines for TIA evaluation and management. A discussion of modifications that can be made for an outpatient setting evaluation and a review of the literature follow.
