How should patients with two stroke occurrences within the same day be recorded?

When a patient strokes twice within the same day, an effort should be made to add both occurrences of stroke (providing the strokes were a separate event).The dataset will not allow two records to be created for the same person on the same day, this is to ensure duplicate records are not created. In order to capture both events, you should therefore enter the initial stroke as occurring on the previous day.
