Our findings indicate that patients with a more severe ischemic stroke, typical stroke symptoms, and arrival by ambulance have shorter stroke treatment time intervals. These results emphasize that, in atypical cases, even a lower suspicion of stroke should promote urgent workup for stroke diagnosis. Our findings do not indicate any influence of demographic or SES on in-hospital reperfusion delays.
