Clinical tools, in one place.
Fast guided calculators for scoring at the bedside, plus the protocols, checklists, and references that support the rest of the stroke workflow.
12 guided calculators
Score without the clutter
Every calculator below uses the same explicit, mobile-friendly option-card workflow with live progress, a persistent result, and clear completion state.
NIHSS Calculator
Full 15-item NIH Stroke Scale with guided progression, UN documentation, and a live 0–42 total.
Open calculator → Level of consciousnessGlasgow Coma Scale
Eye, verbal, and motor selections with live component feedback and a complete E + V + M result.
Open calculator → Functional outcomeModified Rankin Scale
Global disability from 0–6 with independence and walking boundaries made explicit.
Open scale → Ischemic change on CTASPECTS Visual Guide + Calculator
Original two-level MCA anatomy map plus a guided ten-region tracker that records every deduction.
Open visual guide → Intracerebral hemorrhageICH Score
Five-component baseline severity score with complete-input gating and prognosis-safety guidance.
Open calculator → Subarachnoid hemorrhageHunt and Hess Scale
Clinical grading for aneurysmal SAH without false-precision mortality claims.
Open scale → Atrial fibrillationCHA2DS2-VASc
Explicitly score all eight factors for a 0–9 AFib stroke-risk result.
Open calculator → Bleeding riskHAS-BLED
Score nine bleeding-risk factors; use with clinical judgment, not alone to withhold treatment.
Open calculator → PFO and cryptogenic strokeRoPE Score
Clinical phenotype score for a PFO discovered after cryptogenic ischemic stroke.
Open calculator → Post-thrombolysis hemorrhageSEDAN Score
Five-variable symptomatic ICH risk score after IV thrombolysis, with clear limitations.
Open calculator → TIA stroke riskABCD² Score
Two-day stroke risk after TIA, the dual antiplatelet threshold from CHANCE and POINT, and the workup that stands at any score.
Open calculator → TIA stroke riskCanadian TIA Score
Seven-day stroke risk after TIA from thirteen bedside variables — sharper discrimination than ABCD².
Open calculator →10 clinical references
Protocols, checklists, and workflow
These are deliberately separate from calculators: each is a focused clinician-facing guide with its own source context, limitations, and review date.
IV Thrombolysis
Eligibility, time windows, tenecteplase and alteplase dosing, and key exclusions.
Open reference → Stroke workflowDoor-to-Needle Bundle
Parallel-process steps for building a faster, safer thrombolysis workflow.

Ischemic stroke, post-reperfusion, ICH, and aneurysmal SAH targets in one guide.
Open reference → Etiology workupStroke Workup Checklist
Core imaging, cardiac, laboratory, cryptogenic, and young-stroke evaluation.
Open checklist → ClassificationTOAST Classification
Large-artery, cardioembolic, small-vessel, other, and undetermined mechanisms.
Open reference → Secondary preventionAntithrombotic Selection
Single versus dual antiplatelet therapy and when anticoagulation belongs instead.
Open guide → Timing algorithmAnticoagulation Timing
Starting or resuming anticoagulation after ischemic stroke or intracranial hemorrhage.
Open guide → Transitions of carePost-Stroke Discharge Checklist
Medication plan, targets, rehabilitation, follow-up, and patient education.
Open checklist → DocumentationStroke SOAP Note Template

Notes that write themselves
For residents: answer bedside questions and get a complete, evidence-tagged impression and plan as Impression/Plan or SOAP. All nine live together with a left-hand menu in the residents’ workspace.
