The 2026 AHA/ASA guidelines for acute ischemic stroke introduce significant updates and first-ever pediatric stroke recommendations.

The guidelines for care of patients that have experienced acute ischemic stroke have been updated by the American Stroke Association.

Findings from the ASA International Stroke Conference show tenecteplase 4.5 to 24 hours after onset improves 90-day functional outcomes.

The "golden window" for treatment was strictly limited to 4.5 hours. However, the 2026 guidelines introduce a more flexible approach based on advanced imaging.

The American Stroke Association just released new stroke prevention guidelines. They include considering GLP-1 receptor agonists. Doctors applaud the new guidance. More than 795,000 people in the U.S.
