This is a controlled clinical trial among non thrombolysed acute ischemic stroke patients to determine the effects of three levels of arterial pressure on death and neurological disability. After the admission in the vascular unit of the Emergency Department the patients are randomized to maintain during the first 24h the Systolic Arterial Pressure in tree levels of pressure: 140 to 160 mmHg; 161 to 180 mmHg and 181 to 200 mmHg. The end point of the study is the Modified Rankin score and mortality in three month after the discharge.
