If there is a positive screen, this patient should wear a surgical mask and be placed in isolation in a negative pressure room. If telecommunication (phone±video) is available, it should be utilized. Identify the minimum number of providers needed to care for the patient and wear PPE for any patient contact.If there is a positive pulmonary symptom, consider noncontrast chest CT at the same time as head and neck CT/CTA, provided this addition does not incur> 5 min delay. Note, if a patient is received in transfer from another hospital or has already returned from radiology, chest CT should not be performed before reperfusion therapies such as intravenous thrombolysis nor thrombectomy.*
