BACKGROUND:The effectiveness of intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) before endovascular treatment (EVT) has been investigated in randomized trials and meta-analyses. Primary outcome was a shift toward better functional outcome on the modified Rankin Scale at 90 days. Stroke, Ahead of Print.

Intravenous thrombolysis was administered in 55 patients (22.1%) while general anesthesia was used in 94/248 patients (37.9%). Favorable clinical outcome (90-day mRS 0-3) was achieved in 99/246 patients (40.2%), with mortality affecting 98/246 patients (39.8%). years [SD 11.7], 208 [83.5%] male) were included.

Introduction:Transcranial Doppler Ultrasound (TCD) has proven to be useful in monitoring vasospasm after intracerbral hemorrhage (ICH), predicting delayed ischemic stroke (AIS) (sensitivity 91.2%, specificity 80.8%), and assessing recanalization post-thrombolysis for AIS.

BackgroundPrevious clinical trials found improved outcome of thrombolytic treatment in patients with ischemic wake‐up stroke (WUS) selected by advanced imaging techniques. Functional outcomes were assessed by the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at 3 months. Journal of the American Heart Association, Ahead of Print. 1.74];P=0.050).

These patients have worse outcomes: higher mortality, more CHF, higher biomarkers, and worse ejection fractions than the NonSTEMI patients with open arteries. Incidence Incidence, angiographic features and outcomes of patients presenting with subtle ST-elevation myocardial infarction. This is because of subtle ECG findings.
