Abstract
The extent of infarction is a crucial factor for mortality. The consciousness level may identify patients at risk for massive infarct at the first day of stroke and predict a fatal outcome as early as the second day. Early identification of the extent of infarction and close monitoring of the consciousness level help predict outcome.
