Included: all newly arrived patients arriving within 4 hours of known onset time are included in this indicator.
Excluded: newly arrived patients with a known onset time and arrived after 4 hours of onset, newly arrived patients with an unknown onset time, and patients already in hospital at the time of stroke are excluded from this indicator.
This indicator compares the team-centred thrombolysis rate for those arriving within 4 hours of known onset with a bespoke site-specific target derived using the methodology from SAMueL 2.
To calculate performance against the target:
- Firstly, calculate the proportion of patients with known onset time arriving within 4 hours of onset receiving thrombolysis
- Then divide this by the bespoke site-specific target
