Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Ipsilateral Ischemic Stroke Before Carotid Endarterectomy
Ipsilateral ischemic stroke after the presenting event. Only events that occurs within 90 days and before Carotid EndArterectomy (CEA) is used.
Before CEA
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Any Stroke Before Carotid Enderarterectomy
Before CEA
Study Arms (1)
All
All patients enter the same group
Interventions
New practical guidelines after half of the study aimed at reducing the delay and increasing the patient safety.
Eligibility Criteria
All patients with a carotid stenosis \>50%, preliminary eligable for CEA in the northern region of Sweden
You may qualify if:
- Carotid stenosis \>50% according to NASCET criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Not preliminary judged as having an indication for surgery, before an extensive investigation is launched. Thus, some patients that will not undergo CEA will be included.
