Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • National Institute of Health stroke scale (NIHSS) after 3 days of Levofloxacin/simulant treatment

    National Institute of Health stroke scale (NIHSS) ranged from 0 to 42, a low value represents a better outcome.

    immediately after 3 days of Levofloxacin/simulant treatment

  • NIHSS at discharge/7 days

    National Institute of Health stroke scale (NIHSS) ranged from 0 to 42, a low value represents a better outcome.

    discharge/7 days

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Hemorrhagic transformation and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage

    24h,3days and discharge/7 days

  • Infarct volume after 3 days of Levofloxacin/simulant treatment

    immediately after 3 days of Levofloxacin/simulant treatment

  • Modified rankin scale (mRS) score at 30 days

    30 days

  • mRS score at 90 days

    90 days
