Abstract:
Although there is no definite definition,the stroke that has no abnormalities before going to sleep and finds a neurological deficit after waking up are classified as wake-up strokes (WUS) in most of the literature.WUS account for 15％ ～30％ of all stroke cases,and little is known about its pathogenesis.Studies have shown that there is no significant difference in risk factors,clinical features,especially initial severity and outcome between WUS and non-WUS.The current research focuses on the benefits and risks of intravenous thrombolysis and endovascular treatment in WUS.
