Abstract
Acute aortic dissection is rare but life-threatening. The symptoms depend on the localization and reduced perfusion of the downstream organs or limbs and are therefore variable. Neurological symptoms may occur that do not immediately lead to a diagnosis and thus delay the necessary therapy. Knowing the early symptoms and warning signs of aortic dissection is therefore also crucial in neurological emergency care for quickly identifying the affected patients and for providing acute therapy. A misdiagnosis with delayed initiation of therapy can significantly worsen the patient's outcome. This study aims to establish a standardized diagnostic and therapeutic algorithm for suspected acute aortic dissection in neurological emergency care. Close interdisciplinary cooperation is mandatory.
