NBO group
Control group
Normobaric oxygen therapy is the delivery of high-flow oxygen (10L/min) via oxygen storage facemask. This therapy should start within 1 hours after diagnosis of ischemic stroke and last for 4hours. All participants will receive r-tPA thrombolytic therapy and a standard clinical therapy.
The participants receive r-tPA thrombolytic therapy after diagnosed ischemic. All participants receive a standard clinical therapy.
