Abstract:
Intravenous thrombolysis is an effective treatment for acute ischemic stroke, but its benefits are time-dependent. The time from onset to intravenous thrombolysis is divided into onset-to-door time (ODT) and door-to-needle time (DNT). The former reflects pre-hospital delay, while the latter reflects in-hospital delay and can be controlled by stroke improvement plan. This article reviews the influence of DNT on clinical outcomes, the influencing factors of DNT and the stroke improvement plan to shorten DNT.
