Abstract：
INTRODUCTION:Treatment of acute strokes in a Stroke Unit reduces intrahospital mortality and dependence by 29%. One year later this effect is still present. It is not known whether the use of intermediate care in the so-called Acute Stroke Units, with continuous cardiovascular and neurological monitoring, provides further benefit in addition to that obtained by specialized care units in which monitoring is carried out at the usual intervals. DEVELOPMENT AND CONCLUSIONS:In this article we analyze the advantages of Acute Stroke Units in the application of new treatments and their potential benefits in the prevention of medical complications; we also review the general recommendations for treatment in the acute phase of strokes.
