Strokes: Interview with Dr. Charles Emerman

90.3 is launching a regular feature on health. We'll talk to health care providers in the region about health the latest medical studies, research going on at medical centers in our area, medical technology and a wide range of other health related topics. Today, the subject is strokes. It is the third-leading cause of death in the U.S. - causing 150,000 deaths a year - and one reason is that many victims don't get the right advice when symptoms first occur. Doctor Charles Emerman, Chairman of the Department of Emergency Medicine at MetroHealth Medical Center, talks about that with ideastream Executive Editor, David Molpus.
