Abstract:
Large vessel occlusion (LVO) is a common vascular event in acute ischemic stroke. It is recommended to carry out endovascular therapy as soon as possible to save ischemic penumbra. Thus it is of great importance to identify the pre-hospital patients with LVO. At present, there are many LVO screening tools for prehospital settings, such as Los Angeles Motor Scale, Cincinnati Prehospital Stroke Severity Scale, the Rapid Arterial oCclusion Evaluation scale and so on. We will review the research advances on LVO screening tools to improve the clinical work.
