  Randomized Controlled Trial

  Mild hypothermia after intravenous thrombolysis in patients with acute stroke: a randomized controlled trial.

  Hypothermia improves outcome in resuscitated patients and newborns with hypoxic brain injury. We studied the safety and feasibility of mild hypothermia in awake patients with stroke after intravenous thrombolysis. ⋯ http://www.clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT00987922.

  Randomized Controlled Trial

  Alberta Stroke Program early computed tomography score to select patients for endovascular treatment: Interventional Management of Stroke (IMS)-III Trial.

  The Interventional Management of Stroke (IMS)-III trial randomized patients with acute ischemic stroke to intravenous tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA) plus endovascular therapy versus intravenous tPA therapy alone within 3 hours from symptom onset. A predefined secondary hypothesis was that subjects with significant early ischemic change on the baseline scan would not respond to endovascular therapy. ⋯ http://www.clinicaltrials.gov.
