Outcomes between in-hospital stroke and community-onset stroke after thrombectomy: Propensity-score matching analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The benefit of endovascular thrombectomy for patients with in-hospital stroke remains unclear. Thus, the aim of this study was to compare the endovascular thrombectomy outcomes between in-hospital stroke and community-onset stroke among patients with acute ischemic stroke.

Methods

From January 2015 to July 2019, 362 consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation received endovascular thrombectomy in our centre. After propensity score matching with a ratio of 1:2 (in-hospital stroke:community-onset stroke), clinical characteristics and functional outcomes were compared between in-hospital stroke and community-onset stroke groups.

Results

Thirty-six patients with in-hospital stroke and 72 patients with
