Influence of geography, stroke timing, and weather conditions on transport and workflow times: Results from a longitudinal 5-year Canadian provincial registry

CONCLUSION: Geographic factors and stroke timing were associated with EVT workflow times. However, no association with clinical outcomes was seen, suggesting that EVT patients living remote areas of Saskatchewan have similar benefit from EVT compared to urban areas. Every effort should be made to offer timely EVT to patients from remote areas.PMID:37608547 | DOI:10.1177/15910199231196614
