Abstract

This paper presents a systematic review on approaches to the management of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in the emergency setting, highlighting therapeutic interventions such as thrombolytic therapy and mechanical thrombectomy. The analysis of the reviewed studies reveals significant advances in the treatment of acute stroke, including the expansion of therapeutic windows and the growing role of endovascular intervention. Despite progress, challenges persist in early diagnosis, effective patient referral, and availability of specialized resources. Continuous research and interdisciplinary collaboration are crucial to advancing understanding and treatment of stroke in the emergency setting, aiming to improve clinical outcomes and patients' quality of life.
