Lateral medullary syndrome may not be seen well on the initial MRI within 24-48 hours from symptoms. A full neurological exam including temperature sensation on face/limbs, looking for Horner, and hiccups are clues that should trigger a repeat MRI. #stroke #meded #NeuroTwitter

John Richmond’s recovery journey highlights the exceptional care at @UHN – after experiencing a #stroke in 2021. The comprehensive treatment at Toronto Western Hospital and @TorontoRehab helped him return to cycling ➜ bit.ly/3RqeKc3 🚴 #StrokeAwarenessMonth

#TWINT2WIN RCT: single vs dual SR for EVT patients? Dual SR had higher 1st pass TICI 2c-3 with aOR 2.7 and better mRS at 90D ⛓️>🔗 sICH rates were higher in the dual SR but no siginificant difference was noted. #ESOC2024 #VoiceOfStroke

#TRACE3 RCT: TNK (0.25mg/kg) vs BMT for stroke patients between 4.5 - 24h without access to EVT. TNK improved excellent outcome at 90d (RR 1.4 🙌) with no signif. increase in sICH rates ❌️ TNK seemed beneficial across all subgroups #VoiceOfStroke @StrokeCliTrials @SVINJournal
