It is now well known about the evidence that highly selected patients with severe ischemic stroke may benefit from stroke endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) between 6-24 hours of clearly defined stroke symptom onset. This ACT-FAST educational resource has been developed to help with implementation of the ACT-FAST screening tool. The slide deck provides a background on EVT for stroke, reviews changes in acute stroke care management, and provides an overview of the ACT-FAST screening tool. The resource also includes case study videos created by the Champlain Regional Stroke Network.
