Effect of Postoperative Stroke Timing on Perioperative Mortality after Carotid Revascularization
In-hospital stroke (IHS) has been associated with worse outcomes than out-of-hospital stroke (OHS) due to delays in diagnosis and treatment. A paucity of studies exist comparing the timing of postoperative stroke after carotid revascularization. We aimed to study the effect of IHS vs. OHS on postoperative mortality in carotid revascularization patients in a large-scale national database.
