Abstract:Objective To investigate the distribution of treatment time and the factors affecting the delay of treatment in patients with acute ischemic stroke.Methods A total of 150 patients with acute ischemic stroke who were treated in an emergency department from May to October 2018 were enrolled in the study. Clinical data were collected from the selfdesigned questionnaire to observe the distribution of visit time. Singlefactor and multifactor logistic regression were used. Analyze the factors influencing the delay in patient visits.Results Of the 150 patients, 121 were delayed, accounting for 80.67%. There was no significant difference in the time of visits between patients with different stroke risk (P>0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the nonurban area (OR=7.301) and the lack of stroke knowledge education (OR=5.104) were important factors in the delayed treatment of stroke patients (P<0.01).Conclusion The delay in the treatment of patients with acute ischemic stroke is more common. Stroke knowledge education should be strengthened to improve the timeliness of patient visits and thus improve the prognosis.
