Anesthetic consideations for endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke
ConclusionsTimely intervention for patients with acute ischemic stroke is of utmost importance. Endovascular thrombectomy is a minimally invasive procedure that has evolved over recent decades and improves outcomes for selected patients with ischemic stroke. Anesthesiologists should have a good understanding of potential complications and anesthetic options.

Risk factors for ischemic cerebral stroke in patient with acute amaurosis fugax
CONCLUSION: Ischemic stroke and myocardial infarction were diagnosed in 0.3%-0.9% of hospitalized acute AF cases. Presence of hypercoagulable state, systemic vasculitis, CAD, and atherosclerosis each individually increased the risk of ischemic stroke by more than 3-fold; patients with these risk factors and acute AF should be closely monitored for developing acute systemic thrombotic events.PMID:36368408 | DOI:10.1016/j.jcjo.2022.10.010

Can J Neurol Sci. 2023 Feb 17:1-4. doi: 10.1017/cjn.2023.12. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAdvance consent presents a potential solution to the challenge of obtaining informed consent for participation in acute stroke trials. Clinicians in stroke prevention clinics are uniquely positioned to identify and seek consent from potential stroke trial participants. To assess the acceptability of advance consent to Canadian stroke clinic physicians, we performed an online survey. We obtained 58 respondents (response rate 35%): the vast majority (82%) expressed comfort with obtaining advance consent and 92% felt that doing so would...
