ABSTRACT Background The diagnostic criteria for severe ischemic stroke (SIS) vary across studies. There are no generally accepted diagnostic criteria for SIS and no consensus on which criteria are most appropriate in clinical practice. We aimed to evaluate the clinical significance of these criteria by comparing their associations with death/disability
