Bridging the gap between pre- and in-hospital stroke management is crucial for optimizing acute stroke treatment. While recent advancements like thrombectomy and extended therapeutic windows offer promise, they require efficient prehospital systems.

This book addresses this gap by emphasizing strategies for timely treatment, including enhancing patient awareness, educating EMS teams, and implementing advanced technologies like telemedicine and mobile stroke units. It targets a wide range of healthcare professionals involved in stroke care, offering accessible content and self-contained chapters for selective reading. By promoting interdisciplinary cooperation throughout the stroke rescue chain, it aims to improve patient outcomes.
