So excited to share our latest publication on the #WorldStrokeDay

We evaluated the safety and efficacy of intravenous thrombolytics (IVT) in the extended therapeutic window (ETW) of up to 24 hours. In conclusion, the use of IVT in acute ischemic stroke in ETW is BENEFICIAL especially with the USE OF PERFUSION IMAGING for patients' selection.
Me han preguntado por la charla sobre "Novedades en la fisiopatología de la enfermedad de pequeño vaso cerebral (EPVC) " que me correspondió dictar en el reciente congreso chileno de ACV organizado por @ACEVE. 🧠
Aquí 🧵 con un resumen 👇👇👇
This was a terrifically fun collab with one of the most incredibly talented infographic artists I know, @gabifpucci of @neudrawlogy!
Although made before this @ContinuumAAN, it’s perfect timing! More tips for the coma exam here⬇️: https://t.co/N7GmZlrfH3

1/Having trouble remembering what you should look for in vascular dementia on imaging?
Almost everyone worked up for dementia has infarcts.
Do YOU know which ones are important?
Here’s a thread on the key findings in vascular dementia!
Just because it’s called SMALL vessel disease doesn’t mean it doesn’t have a BIG impact!
Small vessel disease (SVD) is a BIG contributor to vascular dementia, along w/large vessel cortical infarcts
Do YOU know all the faces of small vessel disease?
Common imaging markers of SVD include:
--White matter hyperintensities (WMHs)
--Lacunes
--Enlarged perivascular spaces
--Microbleeds
--Small subcortical infarcts
--Brain atrophy
But what you see isn’t always what you get!
Even in patients w/similar degrees of SVD on imaging, clinical symptoms can be very variable.
Variability exists because of:
--Perilesional penumbra
--Remote effects from disruption of brain connectivity
--Differing brain reserve & compensatory mechanisms
So remember, imaging findings of SMALL vessel disease are just the tip of a very BIG iceberg
1/ Nonstenotic cervical carotid plaque (NSP) is an increasingly recognized (but still an underappreciated) contributor of cerebral infarction, possibly accounting for HALF A MILLION strokes worldwide per year. 🤯
Nueva herramienta para detectar a pacientes que precisan diagnóstico y tratamiento inmediato

@TELMEXSoluciona@AtencionProfeco no den sus datos a Telmex por DM, me pidieron correo y teléfono y me cerraron mi otra cuenta, así arreglan que llevo 1 semana quejándome de no tener servicio
@TELMEXSoluciona tengo 4 días sin internet. La aplicación me sigue poniendo diario que al día siguiente se soluciona, por teléfono el asesor dice que el reporte ya está. Hasta cuando?
