Predictive value of discharge destination for 90-day outcomes among ischemic stroke patients eligible for endovascular treatment: Post-hoc analysis of DEFUSE 3

The endovascular treatment (ET) for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is increasing among eligible patients. To help address care quality, administrative data sets are utilized but do not usually include formal outcome scales. We explore the predictive ability of discharge destination from acute hospitalizations for long-term disability among AIS patients eligible for ET within a clinical trial.
