Recent landmark trials BEST-MSU and B_PROUD have proven that MSUs facilitate quicker thrombolysis times and improved functional outcomes at 90 days when compared to conventional emergency medical services (EMS) for acute ischemic stroke patients. The majority (77%) of MSU patients received anti-hypertensive medications while in the MSU.

Primary outcome: door to needle (DTN) time of the APP versus neurology residents using quantile (median) regression adjusted for age, NIHSS and delays for treating hypertension. Secondary outcome evaluated symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) post thrombolysis comparing APP versus neurology residents using Fishers exact test.

IntroductionThe risk of tandem occlusion treatment in the setting of intravenous thrombolysis is unclear. Patients who received thrombolysis and subsequently underwent endovascular therapy for acute ischemic stroke between 2012 and 2022 were included. Baseline demographics and clinical characteristics were compared.

The Impact of Stroke on Global Health A stroke occurs when blood flow to a part of the brain is interrupted, either by a clot (ischemic stroke) or a ruptured vessel (hemorrhagic stroke). This deprivation of oxygen and nutrients results in the rapid death of brain cells, often causing irreversible damage.

Methods:AIS data was retrieved from the Norwegian Cognitive Impairment After Stroke study (Nor-COAST; NOR) and the Registry for Neurological Endpoints among patients with Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Stroke(REINAH; US). Cohorts were matched on age, sex, diabetes, atrial fibrillation, and hypertension.
