Acquisition of Prehospital Stroke Severity Scale is associated with shorter door-to-puncture times in patients with prehospital notifications transported directly to a thrombectomy center
Arrival outside business hours, not meeting AHA level 1 criteria, and lack of PSSS acquisition by EMS were associated with prolonged DTP. Impacting modifiable factors such as prehospital assessment of stroke severity is an optimal target for quality improvement.
