“…In our study, 144/200 (72%) did not receive thrombolysis, mainly due to presentation outside the time window. 2 The middle cerebral artery (MCA) stroke accounted for 45% of the patients in our study, followed by internal carotid artery (ICA) (18%), posterior cerebral artery (PCA) (15%), anterior cerebral artery (ACA) (11%), brainstem (7%), and MCA plus ICA (4%). While we believe that the stroke subtype has an important impact on clinical outcomes; acute stroke care, and discharge care, including adequate rehabilitation, enable IS patients to attain functional independence between 30 and 90 days, especially when it's their first-ever stroke.…”
