Role: Prepare an IPSO position statement on what it means for a center to be “ready” to take care of a child with a stroke, and what we as an organization think should be criteria for a “Pediatric Stroke Center.”  The process will include surveys of IPSO members to develop consensus.  Will need representatives from multiple disciplines and different nationalities to participate in this controversial issue.
