Optimizing Patient Selection for Interhospital Transfer and Endovascular Therapy in Acute Ischemic Stroke: Real-World Data From a Supraregional, Hub-and-Spoke Neurovascular Network in Germany

Optimizing Patient Selection for Interhospital Transfer and Endovascular Therapy in Acute Ischemic Stroke: Real-World Data From a Supraregional, Hub-and-Spoke Neurovascular Network in Germany

Background: Interhospital transfer for endovascular treatment (EVT) within neurovascular networks might result in transfer of patients who will not undergo EVT (futile transfer). Limited evidence exists on factors associated with the primary patient selection for interhospital transfer from primary...
