Abstract
Objective
This study investigated the characteristics of in-hospital acute ischemic stroke (iHAIS) and factors associated with poor outcomes.
Methods
This retrospective, multicenter, observational cohort study included patients with pre-stroke modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 0–2 who underwent mechanical thrombectomy for iHAIS between April 2014 and August 2023. Focused on stroke detection to imaging (DTI) and stroke detection to groin puncture (DTP), we examined the association between these workflows and clinical outcomes and the factors associated with delayed DTI and DTP. Clinical outcomes were evaluated using the mRS at discharge, with mRS 3–6 defined as poor clinical outcomes.
Results
Overall, 110 (78.0 %) of 141 patients with iHAIS had poor clinical outcomes at discharge. Statistical analyses revealed that DTP tended to be associated with poor outcomes (odds ratio, 2.22 [95 % confidence interval (CI), 0.93–5.30], p = 0.072). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) diagnosis was associated with prolonged DTP (HR, 0.52 [95 % CI, 0.36–0.75], p = 0.001) and the hospitalization in the neurology or neurosurgery department tended to have prolonged DTP (HR, 0.61 [95 % CI, 0.38–1.01], p = 0.053).
Conclusions
In patients with iHAIS, MRI diagnosis and hospitalization in the neurology or neurosurgery department were associated with delayed DTP, which is linked to poor outcomes.
