AB  - In  the  United  States,  795,000  people  experience  strokes  annually  (one  stroke  every  40  seconds  and  one  death  from  stroke  every  4  minutes).1  Of  these  events,  77%  are  primary  strokes,  whereas  23%  represent  recurrent  strokes.1  In  addition  to  the  human  costs,  the  financial  implications  of  stroke  are  enormous—strokes  accounted  for  an  estimated  $33.9  billion  of  total  expenditures  in  the  United  States  in  2012  to  2013.1  Despite  these  grim  statistics,  from  2004  to  2014,  the  age-adjusted  stroke  death  rate  fell  28.7%.1  With  the  growing  use  of  stroke  units,  thrombolysis,  mechanical  retrieval,  and  the  ever-expanding  treatment  time  window,  there  is  potential  for  improving  patient  outcomes.
