In 2006, the American Heart Association recommended that carotid revascularization generally occurs within 2 weeks of stroke based on data from 2 trials of carotid endarterectomy (CEA). We aimed to determine whether the time between stroke and CEA or carotid artery stenting (CAS) has decreased and whether the proportion of procedures occurring within 14 days has increased.
