Abstract
Background Endovascular thrombectomy is standard treatment for patients with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion stroke (LVO‐a). Prehospital identification of these patients would enable direct routing to an endovascular thrombectomy‐capable hospital and consequently reduce time‐to‐endovascular thrombectomy. Electroencephalography (EEG) has previously proven to be promising for LVO‐a stroke detection. Fast and reliable electrode application, however, can remain a challenge. A potential alternative is subhairline EEG. We evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of subhairline EEG for LVO‐a stroke detection. Methods and Results We included adult patients with a suspected stroke or known LVO‐a stroke and symptom onset time
