Investigating the utility of previously developed prediction scores in acute ischemic stroke patients in the stroke belt.
The researchers compared several scoring systems among patients receiving systemic and endovascular treatments. They concluded that their study demonstrated that although highly predictive of outcome in the original study design treatment groups, prediction scores may not generalize to all patient samples, highlighting the importance of validating prediction scores in diverse samples.
