Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Patients With Favourable Outcome (Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 0-1) at 1 YearUp to 1 year post index hospital admission (between January 2017 and March 2020); data retrieved and studied from July 18, 2022 to December 14, 2022 (approximately 5 months of this study).

Percentage of patients with favourable outcome (modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 0-1) at 1 year.

The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) is used for measuring the degree of disability or dependence in the daily activities of people who have suffered a stroke or other causes of neurological disability.

The scale runs from 0-6, from 'perfect health without symptoms' to 'death'. 0 - No symptoms.

1. - No significant disability.

2. - Slight disability.

3. - Moderate disability.

4. - Moderately severe disability.

5. - Severe disability.

6. - Dead.

Reported percentages of subjects were calculated from the conditional logistic regression models with stratification by matching pairs and adjustment for prior mRS score (≤ 1 or not), baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score, and time from symptom onset to hospital admission.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Patients With Any Intracranial Haemorrhage (ICH) During HospitalisationUp to 3 months

Percentage of patients with any intracranial haemorrhage (ICH) during hospitalisation.

Reported percentages of subjects were calculated from the conditional logistic regression models with stratification by matching pairs and adjustment for prior mRS score (≤ 1 or not), baseline NIHSS score, and time from symptom onset to hospital admission.

All-cause Mortality During HospitalisationUp to 3 months

All-cause mortality during hospitalisation.

Reported percentages of subjects were calculated from the conditional logistic regression models with stratification by matching pairs and adjustment for prior mRS score (≤ 1 or not), baseline NIHSS score, and time from symptom onset to hospital admission.

Percentage of Patients With Independence (Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 0-2) at 1 YearUp to 1 year post index hospital admission (between January 2017 and March 2020); data retrieved and studied from July 18, 2022 to December 14, 2022 (approximately 5 months of this study).
