Hospital‐Level Variability in Reporting of Ischemic Stroke Subtypes and Supporting Diagnostic Evaluation in GWTG‐Stroke Registry

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023
Background Secondary prevention of ischemic stroke (IS) requires adequate diagnostic evaluation to identify the likely etiologic subtype. We describe hospital‐level variability in diagnostic testing and IS subtyping in a large nationwide registry ...
