Abstract

Objective: The aims of the present study were to determine how renal disease is associated with the time to receive hyperacute stroke care. 

Methods: The present study involved a 5-year cohort of all patients admitted to stroke units in South Australia. 

Results: In those with pre-existing renal disease there were no significant differences in the time taken to receive a scan, thrombolysis or endovascular thrombectomy. 

Conclusions: The present study shows that in protocolised settings there were no significant delays in hyperacute stroke management for patients with renal disease.
