Abstract
Acute care for ischemic stroke has dramatically evolved over the last years. Cerebral reperfusion is possible up to 24 h after symptoms onset. Advanced brain imaging allows identifying salvageable ischemic brain tissue, and the development of newer endovascular devices permits access to distal vessels. Monitoring for neurologic deterioration, diagnosis of stroke etiology, and secondary prevention treatments are important after initial treatment.
