Time for a Time Window Extension: Insights from Late Presenters in the ESCAPE Trial [INTERVENTIONAL]

CONCLUSIONS: Patients with an extended time window could potentially benefit from endovascular treatment. Ongoing randomized controlled trials using imaging to identify late presenters with favorable brain physiology will help cement the paradigm of using time windows to select the population for acute imaging and imaging to select individual patients for therapy.
