AB  - Time  is  brain.  Time  of  symptom  onset  is  key  to  acute  stroke  treatment.Hypoglycemia  and  hypoxia  can  mimic  stroke.  Assess  and  treat  these  conditions  early  in  the  evaluation  of  patients  with  stroke-like  symptoms.Resist  the  urge  to  aggressively  lower  blood  pressure.  Hypertension  is  the  body's  attempt  to  maintain  perfusion  to  ischemic  tissue.  Hypotension  can  make  things  worse.Transient  ischemic  attack  (TIA)  is  a  warning  of  a  stroke  to  come  (aborted  stroke).  Treat  TIAs  seriously  and  work  up  risk  factors  expediently.
