Access to acute care resources in various income settings to treat new-onset stroke: A survey of acute care providers

ConclusionThe striking finding from this study was that there was essentially very little difference between the responses between LMIC and HIC respondents with a few notable exceptions. The findings also propose a universal lack of adherence to the 2013 AHA/ASA stroke management guideline by both groups, in contrast to the good reported knowledge thereof. Carefully planned qualitative research is needed to identify the barriers to achieving the 2013 AHA/ACA recommendations.
