| dc.description.abstract | Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA) is a critical predictor of future stroke, yet it is frequently
underrecognized due to its transient and often mild neurological manifestations. This
literature review aims to synthesize clinical and technological approaches for early screening
and detection of TIA, emphasizing strategies aligned with timely intervention and stroke
prevention. A systematic search was conducted across PubMed, Scopus, and Google
Scholar, identifying 94 articles. Following PRISMA guidelines, 10 studies were selected
based on inclusion criteria related to early detection, emergency response, and digital health
interventions. The analysis yielded three major themes: (1) the clinical relevance of early
recognition of subtle neurological symptoms, (2) the role of emergency medical services and
prehospital screening tools, and (3) the emergence of mobile health (mHealth) and
telemedicine platforms in supporting early TIA detection. Findings indicate that while TIA
symptoms are transient, they signal a significant risk of subsequent stroke, underscoring the
need for prompt and accurate assessment. Technological innovations such as mobile
applications and teleconsultation enhance traditional diagnostic methods but face challenges
in implementation, including disparities in digital access and limited public awareness. In
conclusion, integrating clinical vigilance with scalable technological solutions holds promise
for improving early TIA detection, particularly in resource limited or remote settings. It is
recommended that health systems invest in training emergency responders and adopt
validated digital tools into prehospital protocols. Future research should focus on clinical
validation and real-world integration of mHealth platforms to support global stroke prevention
efforts. | en_US |
