A carotid occlusion on a CTA is sometimes difficult to distinguish if acute or chronic. Often, there are no prior images available. Below are some hints that a cervical carotid occlusion is acute or subacute as opposed to chronic. #stroke #MedEd #neurotwitter

This is my approach. If within 4.5 hrs from LKWT & deficits: 1- clearly disabling or non-clearly disabling, favor TNK & ? EVT. 2- resolved, hold off IVT but can argue to reset the clock & treat w IVT if sxs recur. 3- clearly non-disabling, favor holding off IVT.

The TEMPO-2 trial led to controversy regarding the utility of thrombolysis in patients with NIHSS 0-5 who have an intracranial vessel occlusion. Below is a thread dissecting the trial and available data on minor stroke as well as my interpretation of the trial and practice. 🧵
