Anaesthesia practices for endovascular therapy of acute ischaemic stroke: a Nordic survey

ConclusionsThis survey indicates that the majority of Nordic anaesthesia departments who manage anaesthesia for EVT are able to provide immediate 24‐h response to an EVT request. Most of these departments have institutional guidelines for EVT anaesthesia and haemodynamic management. Conscious sedation appears to be the preferred method of anaesthetic care.
