Abstract:
Early treatment of acute ischemic stroke has been proven clinically effective.However,these early reperfusion strategies are highly time-dependent.It is important to reduce the onset-reperfusion time,especially the prehospital delay.Currently prehospital stroke scales have been widely used to screen stroke patients on field.It is urgent to introduce the Chinese versions of these scales to educate emergency personnel and the public.More qualified stroke centers and regional stroke networks are needed to facilitate the triage and transfer of stroke patients.
