Interventions

The treatment with the Phot Thera Laser System (NTS) will be applied in addition to the standard ischemic CVA treatment as follows: Single active treatment, up to 24 hours after the start of the CVA and up to a dose of 15 mW / cml. The TheraCap 11 (TCII) accessory will predetermine the location of the treatment, designing openings for the location of the probe. All openings will have numbered stickers that will be applied in order from 1 to 26, which will ensure the consistency and standardizati

Possibility of starting treatment with NTS within 24 hours of the start of the ACV. 4. Clinical diagnosis of ischemic stroke as a cause of measurable neurological deficit. 5. Total score in the detection of> 7 and <22 on the NIH ACV Scale evaluated at the time of admission to the Community Hospital. 6. The subject and / or his / her legal representative give their informed consent before taking the study. 7. The Subject wishes to participate in this study for at least 3 months after the start of the ACV. 8. It is the opinion of the Principal Investigator, that based on the knowledge of the condition of the subject, as well as the characteristics of the NTS, that the subject is an appropriate candidate for the management of the LCA using an NTS.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Outcome name:Survival without adverse events: Clinical evaluation. Tests of serum biochemistry, hemotology. 12-lead ECG. Measure:Treatment safety Timepoints:Clinical evaluation during visits: Before treatment, 24 hours post treatment, days 7, 30, 60 and 90. Tests of serum biochemistry, hemotology. 12-lead ECG: Before the treatment and on day 90.
