| | Anterior circulation ischemic stroke accounts for approximately 70% of all ischemic strokes. | | | Heparin therapy also may be commenced in conjunction with warfarin therapy for secondary prevention of cardioembolic stroke; it may be started either on admission (if not receiving rt-PA) or 3-5 days after stroke onset. | | | Other medical management of anterior circulation ischemic stroke consists of optimal blood pressure control and administration of therapies aimed at secondary stroke prevention, usually antiplatelet agents or anticoagulants, depending on the etiology of the stroke. |

| | Thalamic pain starts several weeks after the stroke and presents as an intense burning pain on the side of the body affected by the stroke and is often worsened by cutaneous stimulation. | | | If the patient is a candidate for thrombolytic therapy, then the patient should be typed and cross-matched. | | | The cerebellum is responsible for several aspects of movement and works in conjunction with the basal ganglia and the motor portion of the cerebral cortex to control movement. |
