The purpose of the training course “Keep Calm and Control Pressure” is to provide neurologists, intensivists, and neurointensivists with the essential knowledge and skills to manage critical situations in patients with acute neurological emergencies. This training addresses the management of both acute ischemic stroke and acute intracerebral hemorrhage according to the latest ESO guidelines, while also covering related acute neurological emergencies like epileptic status and patients with crisis of intracranial pressure (ICP). These scenarios highlight the critical role of hemodynamic control in complex
neurological emergencies with a focus on blood pressure management.
The use of simulation in this course represents a powerful and safe approach to giving neurologists, intensivists, and neurointensivists hands-on experience in managing these highstakes situations within a realistic yet controlled environment. Through this immersive simulation-based training, participants
will develop their crisis management abilities, refine their clinical decision-making skills, and ultimately improve patient safety and neurological outcome. In summary, simulation-based training in blood pressure management for stroke patients is an invaluable strategy to elevate patient safety, optimize clinical care, and foster ongoing professional development among neurologists, intensivists, and neurointensivists.
