Impact of Direct Admission Versus Interfacility Transfer on Endovascular Treatment Outcomes for Acute Ischemic Stroke: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Mechanical thrombectomy is a proven treatment for large-vessel ischemic stroke with improved functional outcomes compared with intravenous thrombolytics. Access to thrombectomy-capable sites varies greatly by geography, often necessitating interhospital transfer of patients who first present to hospitals unable to provide thrombectomy.
