Study investigates rural versus urban differences in thrombectomy transfer timelines for large vessel occlusions.
Why the study?
Are there differences in transfer timelines from last known normal to groin-puncture for thrombectomy between urban and rural patients with large vessel occlusions?
Are there differences in transfer timelines from last known normal to groin-puncture for thrombectomy between urban and rural patients with large vessel occlusions?
Emphasizes rural access barriers in LVO care; leaves open whether reducing delays improves outcomes.
