Background and Purpose This study aimed at comparing short-term clinical outcome after thrombectomy in patients directly admitted (DA) to a comprehensive stroke center with patients secondarily transferred (ST) from a primary stroke center. Methods In a prospective regional stroke registry, all stroke patients with a premorbid modified Rankin scale (mRS) score 0-2 who were admitted within 24 & x202f;h after stroke onset and treated with thrombectomy between 2014 and 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients with DA and ST were compared regarding the proportion of good outcome (discharge mRS 0-2), median discharge mRS, mRS shift (difference between premorbid mRS and mRS on discharge) and occurrence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage. Results Out of 2797 patients, 1051 (37.6%) achieved good clinical outcome. In the DA group (n & x202f;= 1657), proportion of good outcome was higher (DA 42.2% vs. ST 30.9%, P & x202f;< 0.001) and median discharge mRS (DA 3 vs. ST 4, P & x202f;< 0.001) and median mRS shift (DA 3 vs. ST 4, P & x202f;< 0.001) were lower. The rate of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage was similar in both groups (DA 9.3% vs. ST 7.5%, P & x202f;= 0.101). Multivariate analysis revealed that direct admission was an independent predictor of good clinical outcome (adjusted odds ratio, OR 1.32, confidence interval, CI 1.09-1.60, P & x202f;= 0.004). Conclusion These results confirm prior studies stating that DA to a comprehensive stroke center leads to better outcome compared to ST in stroke patients undergoing thrombectomy.
