Comparison of Outcomes After Treatment of Large Vessel Occlusion in a Critical Care Resuscitation Unit or a Neurocritical Care Unit.

The CCRU increased AIS-LVO patients' access to definitive care and reduced their transfer time from outlying medical facilities while achieving outcomes similar to those attained by patients treated in the subspecialty NCCU. We conclude that a resuscitation unit can complement the NCCU to care for patients in the hyperacute phase of AIS-LVO.
