Brief Summary
The current guideline recommends to give antithrombotic treatment 24 hours after intravenous thrombolysis in acute ischemic stroke. However, early neurological deterioration will occur in some patients due to no antithrombotic treatment, which is closely associated with poor outcome. The current trial aims to investigate the effectiveness and safety of early antithrombotic treatment after intravenous thrombolysis in minor stroke.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
The proportion of excellent prognosis
excellent prognosis is defined as modified Rankin Score (mRS) 0-1. The minimum and maximum values of mRS are 0 and 6, respectively; higher score mean a worse outcome
Day 90
Secondary Outcomes (8)
The proportion of favorable prognosis
Day 90
Distribution of modified Rankin Score (mRS)
Day 90
Changes in National Institute of Health stroke scale (NIHSS)
24 hours, 48 hours, and 10 days
Occurrence of early neurologyical deterioration (END)
24 hours
The incidence of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage
36 hours
- +3 more secondary outcomes
