Ischemic Stroke
Conditions
Keywords
acute ischemic stroke, intravenous fluid, ้hydration
Brief summary
To study the result of intravenous fluid in patients with acute ischemic stroke within 72 hours.
Detailed description
This study aims to find the effect of early IV fluid administration to patients with acute ischemic stroke on the neurological outcome and to determine the side effects of intravenous fluids. Due to its cost effectiveness and wide accessibility, the possible application or use of IV fluid infusion as first line treatment can aide in the treatment of more acute ischemic stroke patients worldwide. This novel information will aide physicians with more comprehensive understanding of the efficacy of utilizing IV fluid in future treatment plans for patients with acute ischemic stroke.
Interventions
0.9% NaCl solution intravenous infusion: 100 ml/hr for three days.
