Stroke: Stroke thrombosis is important every minute

Intravenous thrombolytic therapy is an accepted treatment for acute ischemicstrokeIn a recent study published in Stroke, an authoritative journal for the fieldof vasculardisease,, researchers aimed to quantify the effects of every minute delay in routine clinical practice on patients' 90-day survival, complications of cerebral hemorrhage within 36 hours, and functional outcomes at 3 monthsresearchers conducted a nationwide registry-based study that included 14,132 adult patients with ischemic stroke who received venous thrombosis treatment between 2010 and 2017The researchers analyzed the results using multifactorlogistic regression and corrected potential confounding factorsThe median DNT was 47 minutes, which was reduced from 65 minutes to 38 minutes during the studyThe median age of the subjects was 74, and the median stroke scale of the National Institutes of Health was 8 pointsThe researchers found that DNT had a significant impact every minute of delay, with a 0.6 percent reduction in survival, an increased risk of brain haemorrhage, a 0.3 percent decrease in daily activity, and a 0.4 percent decrease in living conditions and mobilityit can be seen that improving DNT is a key factor for good outcome after strokeThe researchers estimate that in 2017 alone, Sweden saved 38 lives by reducing DNT, averting eight brain haesmorrhages and saving 36, 51 and 52 patients from daily life, activity and activity, respectivelyDNT is very sensitive to interventions and should be the goal of quality improvement efforts
