Extended Delays in Recognition of Stroke Symptoms and Stroke Code Activation for In-Hospital Strokes: The DELAY Study
This study showed significant delays in stroke symptom recognition and stroke code activation for in-hospital stroke patients despite comparable overall stroke time metrics. Development of in-hospital stroke protocols and systematic staff training on stroke symptom recognition should be implemented to improve care for hospitalized patients.
