Reporting and Analysis of Process-of-Care Time Measures for Hyperacute Stroke Interventions
We recommend that stroke researchers: (1) summarize a sufficient set of process-of-care time measures using the median/interquartile range and use consistent rank-based analysis methods; (2) exercise caution in utilizing transformation-based methods to impute the mean/SD of process-of-care time measures; and (3) use median-based meta-analytical techniques for the synthesis of process-of-care time measures.
