🚴♂️ One year after a stroke, Erie survivor Steven Krauza rode 140 miles from UPMC Hamot to UPMC Mercy to thank the care team that helped save his life & raise awareness-a stroke can happen to anyone. His journey is a powerful reminder: know the signs, act FAST, & call 911. 🧠💙

Excited to share our article @GreenJournal featuring the AURORA collaboration. EVT benefit is preserved across the 6–24h window but time still matters. Faster workflows remain critical to improving outcomes. neurology.org/doi/10.1212/WN…
