Included: all patients that were given thrombectomy are included in this indicator.
Excluded: patients that were not given thrombectomy are excluded from this indicator
Directly admitted patients:
For patients newly arriving at hospital, the door to puncture time is the difference between the date and time of arrival (Q 1.13) and the date and time of arterial puncture (Q 2.11.6a).
For patients already in hospital at the time of their stroke (Q 1.10 is ‘Yes’), the door to puncture time is the difference between the date and time of symptom onset (Q 1.11) and the date and time of arterial puncture (Q 2.11.6a).
For transferred patients:
The door to puncture time if the difference between the date and time of arrival at thrombectomy centre (Q 4.1) and the date and time of arterial puncture (Q 2.11.6a).
Cohort median: To find the median time, all the door to puncture times need to be listed from smallest to largest. The median is then the number in the middle of this list.
