Prognostic nomogram for the outcomes in acute stroke patients with intravenous thrombolysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background and purpose

The prediction of neurological outcomes in ischemic stroke patients is very useful in treatment choices, as well as in post-stroke management. This study is to develop a convenient nomogram for the bedside evaluation of stroke patients with intravenous thrombolysis.

Materials and methods

We reviewed all enrolled stroke patients with intravenous thrombolysis retrospectively. Favorable outcome was defined as modified Rankin Score (mRs) less than 2 at 90 days post thrombolysis. We compared the clinical characteristics between patients with favorable outcome and poor outcome. Then, we applied logistic regression models and compared their predictability.

Results

A total of 918 patients were enrolled in this study, 448 patients from one hospital were
