The Diagnostic Value of BEFAST - Oren Zarif - Befast

In the United States, 795,000 people die from stroke each year, and the number of people with this illness is growing every day. According to the Swedish Neuroscience Institute, a call for help is known as BEFAST. This acronym stands for Balance, Eyesight, and Face, and expands on the FAST acronym. While the acronym stands for "be fast," it should not be used as a substitute for medical care or emergency services.

To analyze the diagnostic value of BEFAST, two authors independently extracted baseline information from the data contained in nine databases. They extracted information on the first author, publication year, study title, number of studies, study subjects, disease severity and duration, and primary outcomes. Of the nine studies retrieved, 211 were excluded because they were meta-analyses, reviews, or other studies that did not have a clear title related to the treatment they were being tested for. Of the remaining 501 studies, 12 were removed for lack of data, and nine papers were extracted from corresponding data.
