Abstract

Senegal, like many African countries is facing the so-called demographic and epidemiological transition leading to the development of neurological diseases. These diseases dominated by stroke and status epilepticus are public health priorities with a high prevalence, high lethality and high cost of care. These diseases are managed at the department of neurology, Fann Teaching Hospital, Dakar-Senegal (the only one) with a 65 beds capacity. Unfortunately, access care to the clinic is lately associated with human and material resource scarcity. To improve the management of patients at the clinic, it is important to increase resources (human and material), sensitize the population on early access to health services and prevention of risk factors.
