Description
Summary:Abstract only Introduction: Endovascular stroke therapy has become the gold standard treatment for large vessel occlusion. The Joint Commission has certified hospitals as Comprehensive stroke centers (JCCSC) based on rigorous standards in the hopes of identifying centers of excellence. We sought to determine if JCCSC have faster door to reperfusion times compared to non-JCCSC. Methods: The TREVO registry is a multicenter international real world registry assessing angiographic and clinical outcomes with the Trevo device being used in the first pass. We defined a CSC as certified by the Joint Commission as of July 1, 2016. Demographic information, times within the hospital, angiographic results and clinical outcomes were analyzed between the JCCSC and non-JCCSC institutions. Results: A total of 507 patients (329 JCCSC, 178 non-JCCSC) have completed data in the Trevo registry to date. There are a higher proportion of patients with ASPECTS < 7 being treated at JCCSC vs. non-JCCSC (8.8% vs. 0.0%, p
