Description: Aim; Ischemic stroke, a critical condition, can be categorized into thrombotic and embolic subtypes. Understanding the differences in platelet indices between these subtypes can provide valuable insights. Method; This cross-sectional study included patients diagnosed with acute ischemic stroke in the emergency department. Thrombotic and embolic subtypes were compared in terms of demographics, comorbidities, blood results and platelet indices. The primary outcome of the study was comparison of platelet indices between thrombotic and embolic ischemic stroke patients. Results; The study included a total of 233 patients, with 130 (55.8%) diagnosed with thrombotic ischemic stroke and 103 (44.2%) with embolic ischemic stroke. Thrombotic stroke patients were older in age (p=0.01), had higher rates of coronary artery disease (p=0.019). But the embolic stroke patients and higher rate of atrial fibrillation (p
