Stroke 47:668-673, Arch, A.E.,et al, 2016
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Atypical symptoms associated with posterior circulation strokes lead to misdiagnoses. This was true at both an academic center and a large community hospital. Future studies need to focus on the evaluation of identification systems and tools in the emergency department to improve the accuracy of stroke diagnosis.
