#MondayTip 🧠 🌍From #ESOC2026 to practice: stroke care is moving across the whole pathway: BP control, imaging, EVT selection, adjunctive therapies, cooling, mobility & recovery. ☝️Better outcomes will come from better systems, sharper selection, and evidence-based details

Very important study that may change clinical practice and improve stroke etiology detection. #WSC2024 @SposatoL
Congratulations to Luciano Sposato @SposatoL for completing the DAYLIGHT study: higher rates of cardioaorthic thrombus detection with extended CTA with just 1 minute longer examination #WSC2024

Tive o prazer de conversar com a @folha sobre a pesquisa em AVC, doença que afeta milhões de pessoas no Brasil e no Mundo.
FOLHAS DESCOBERTAS | O combate a uma das principais causas de morte do mundo, o AVC (acidente vascular cerebral), é o que faz brilhar os olhos de Eva Rocha. Ela é uma das pesquisadoras escolhidas para participar da série Folha Descobertas, iniciativa da Folha em parceria com o Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein que estreia nesta quarta (3). 📲 Leia mais em mla.bs/0a0a9237 🎦 TV Folha

Amazing talk with Dr Adnan Qureshi.
New Aha! with JAHA: @EvaRochaMD and Dr Adnan Qureshi compare patient transfer and physician transfer as strategies for accessing mechanical thrombectomy treatment for acute stroke. He also shares his advice for young neurology researchers. @mumedicine

Interpretation: one size does not fit all. Refer to the scientific statement algorithm. Prefer AC in high AIS risk groups but low🩸 risk & limit to 30 days (no more than 90 days) if doing so. AP in low risk groups or high🩸risk. Prefer DAPT > SAPT. ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/…

Such an important trial showing the efficacy of thrombectomy in an extended time window without the need for advanced neuroimaging in acute stroke. Important findings not only for Brazil but also for other Low and Middle income countries. Congratulations to all participants!
.@RaulNogueiraMD and @sheilambrasil present RESILIENT-Extend - initially noting two key ways the trial differs from many other thrombectomy studies: its setting in a middle-income country (Brazil), and imaging protocols used for treatment selection (NCCT/CTA) #ISC24 #ISC2024
