Electroencephalography Might Improve Diagnosis of Acute Stroke and Large Vessel Occlusion.

Journal: Stroke
PMID: 32942967

Abstract

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Clinical methods have incomplete diagnostic value for early diagnosis of acute stroke and large vessel occlusion (LVO). Electroencephalography is rapidly sensitive to brain ischemia. This study examined the diagnostic utility of electroencephalography for acute stroke/transient ischemic attack (TIA) and for LVO.
