title: [The practice guideline 'TIA' (first revision) from the Dutch College of General Practitioners; a response from the perspective of neurology].
abstract: The revised TIA guideline is a significant improvement: the diagnosis 'TIA' no longer depends on the symptoms having disappeared within 24 h, the criteria for referral to a neurologist have been widened, and the antithrombotic treatments for the various manifestations of cardiovascular disease have been harmonised.
