NEURO CONSULT — r20261002s-12SERIES: NIGHT FLOATTHE STROKE NEUROLOGIST
STAT

3:40 a.m. Consult reason, in full: "Neuro eval." Me: "Eval for what?" Pager: "Neuro." Which one have you actually said out loud? Send this to whoever writes 'neuro eval'.

EXPLAINED (ACCURACY-CHECKED)

A specific clinical question improves the relevance and efficiency of specialty consultation; non-specific consult requests require the consultant to reconstruct the clinical question independently.

Established neuroanatomy / standard clinical teaching; PubMed and Consensus were not reachable in this unattended run, so no PMID is asserted.
