Penumbra in Acute Ischemic Stroke
Current Neurovascular Research, 2021Abstract: Acute ischemic stroke is one of the leading causes of disability and death worldwide. The brain tissue adjacent to the central necrotic core was first defined as ischemic penumbra characterized by reduced cerebral blood flow (CBF) with electrical failure but maintained ionic homeostasis and transmembrane electrical potentials.

Thrombolysis in Acute Ischemic Stroke
1996Thrombolysis is an attractive but potentially dangerous they for cerebral ischemia: it is capable of dissolving an arterial thrombus, but can also transform a pale infarct into a hematoma and/or may cause severe oedema and herniation. The safety and efficacy of the treatment critically depend on the timing of intervention ad on patient selection.

Acute ischemic stroke is common and often treatable, but treatment requires reliable information on the state of the brain that may be provided by modern neuroimaging. Critical information includes: the presence of hemorrhage; the site of arterial occlusion; the size of the early infarct "core"; and the size of underperfused, potentially threatened ...

More than 700,000 people have a stroke each year in the United States. A diagnosis of stroke formerly elicited a nihilistic approach, but this has substantially changed in the last decade. Currently, time is brain, and it is important for all disciplines to work together to initiate acute stroke protocols in the emergency department and identify ...
