Impact of coronavirus disease 2019 on time delay and functional outcome of mechanical thrombectomy in Tokyo, Japan
Several papers from around the world have reported that outbreaks of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) have led to the following time delays associated with endovascular mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS): onset-to-door (O2D) time,1,2 door-to-puncture (D2P) time and door-to-recanalization time.3 Several speculative factors may explain these delays, such as a collapse of emergency services focused on patients with COVID-192 and patients ’ fear of exposure to COVID-19 through interactions within the health-care system.
