Abstract
Any out-of-hospital neurological deficit of less than 24 hours should prompt a call for emergency medical help Urgent Medical Aid Service. Early identification of signs of stroke or transient ischaemic attack allows to guide the therapeutic approach towards intravenous thrombolysis or other alternatives. Telemedicine centres complement the network of neurovascular units.
