Global Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Stroke Volumes and Cerebrovascular Events

Thanh N. Nguyen, +370 more
- 18 Oct 2022 - 
TL;DR: The results suggest preservation in the stroke care of higher severity of disease through the first pandemic year and a global decline and shift to lower volume centers of stroke admission volumes, ICH volumes, and IVT volumes during the 1st year of the COVID-19 pandemic compared to the prior year.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mapping access to endovascular stroke care in the USA and implications for transport models.

Jared Aldstadt, +13 more
- 16 Feb 2021 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a cross-sectional study was conducted to determine the percentage of the US population with 60 min ground or air access to accredited or state-designated endovascular-capable stroke centers (ECC) and non-endovascular capable stroke centers within a 30 min drive.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bridging thrombolysis in atrial fibrillation stroke is associated with increased hemorrhagic complications without improved outcomes.

Feras Akbik, +30 more
- 24 Nov 2021 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors found that bridging therapy led to significant increases in symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and parenchymal hematoma type 2 (aOR 1.66, 1.07 to 2.57, p=0.024) without any benefit in 90 day functional outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intravenous thrombolysis of large vessel occlusions is associated with higher hospital costs than small vessel strokes: a rationale for developing stroke severity-based financial models

Ansaar T Rai, +3 more
- 01 Apr 2016 - 
TL;DR: The presence or absence of LVO is associated with significant differences in hospital costs, outcomes, admission duration, and home discharge and can be important when developing systems of care models for acute ischemic stroke.
Journal ArticleDOI

O-004 the first pass effect: a new measure for stroke thrombectomy devices

O. O. Zaidat, +29 more
- 01 Jul 2015 - 
TL;DR: A new measure for the newer generation stroke thrombectomy devices, the First Pass Effect (FPE), defined as achieving thrombolysis in cerebral ischemia (TICI) score of 3 from the first pass, was described.
