Abstract: The ischemic stroke represents one of the most frequent pathology patients present with in the Emergency Department (ED). Because of the wide range of simptoms, sometimes the diagnosis process requires significant time and resources, not allways available in a busy E.D. To reduce the necessary time to establish a diagnosis, apart of physical exam and CT-imaging, new methods and protocols could be proposed. The value of D-dimers represent a tool that can be used to assess the probability of the presence of new thrombuses, including cerebral. This preliminary study investigates the utility of the use of D-dimers in clinical practice and the posibility to be integrated in a more elaborate protocole focused on ischemic stroke.
