Recent data have provided overwhelming evidence in favor of benefits of emergent endovascular intervention in large vessel acute ischemic stroke (AIS). India with its large population has a huge burden of AIS. Hence, neurologists need to gear up to the new challenge of providing interventional care to huge populations of AIS in the country. The best way to cover this unprecedented unmet need is to encourage neurologists to take up interventional subspecialty interests through new but sound training pathways.
最近的数据提供了压倒性的证据,支持对大血管急性缺血性卒中(AIS)进行紧急血管内介入治疗的益处。印度人口众多,AIS负担巨大。因此,神经科医生需要做好准备,应对为该国大量AIS患者提供介入治疗这一新挑战。满足这一前所未有的未被满足的需求的最佳方法是鼓励神经科医生通过新的但合理的培训途径,培养介入亚专业兴趣。
