Diagnostic Errors in the Acutely Dizzy Patient—Lessons Learned by Alexander A. Tarnutzer, Nehzat Koohi, Sun-Uk Lee, Diego Kaski

“…Furthermore, in patients with triggered episodic vestibular symptoms provocation maneuvers should be preferred over HINTS(+), and a potential diagnosis of stroke should not be immediately dismissed in younger patients presenting with a headache (where migraine may be more common), but the possibility of a vertebral artery dissection should be further evaluated. Importantly, moderate training of non-experts allows for significant improvement in diagnostic accuracy in the acutely dizzy patient and thus should be prioritized.…”
