KEY PRINCIPLES IN ISCHEMIC STROKE: 1.9 million neurons are lost/ minute of lack of blood flow Brain ages 3.6 years for each hour without treatment
Core = dead brain tissue
Penumbra = Brain at risk for infarct, salvageable brain

ELVO STROKE EPIDEMIOLOGY
Conservatively, 10-15% of all ischemic strokes due to ELVO
No treatment, or ineffective treatment of LVO strokes is associated with a higher level of disability and mortality (75-80%)
Timely endovascular intervention can lower rates of mortality and improve rates of independence (60%)
However, 90% of all ELVO currently do not reach an endovascular capable center in a timely fashion

ELVO STROKE
We know how to treat these patients
We have highly effective tools
But we need to get them to the right place the first time to actually help them
How can we do this?

CONCLUSION
1.Acute ischemic stroke is a neurologic emergency. 2. In addition to iv tPA, mechanical thrombectomy is a powerful treatment option for patients with emergent large vessel occlusion (ELVO). 3. Timeliness in identifying these patients and prompt triage to the nearest endovascular facility offers the best chance at minimizing disability and improving outcomes. 4. Infield stroke severity based assessment can play a crucial role in the timely identification and treatment of patients with ELVO
