Do not use scoring systems, such as ABCD2, to assess risk of subsequent stroke or to inform urgency of referral for people who have had a suspected or confirmed TIA. Offer secondary prevention, in addition to aspirin, as soon as possible after the diagnosis of TIA is confirmed. Do not offer CT brain scanning to people with a suspected TIA unless ...
