Long-Term Cost-Effectiveness of Severity-Based Triaging for Large Vessel Occlusion Stroke

ConclusionsAn ACT-FAST severity-triaging strategy is associated with cost-saving and increased benefits when compared to standard care pathways. Implementing ACT-FAST triaging increased the proportion of patients who received EVT procedure due to more patients arriving at EVT-capable hospitals within the 6-h time window (when imaging selection is less rigorous).
