Latent profile analysis of emergency department presentation characteristics in patients with acute ischemic stroke

1

The study identified four latent profiles of emergency department presentations among acute ischemic stroke patients using Latent Profile Analysis.
2

Significant differences in demographic and clinical features were observed across the four profiles, impacting treatment outcomes.
3

The rapid EMS-activated profile had the highest rates of reperfusion therapy and favorable prognosis compared to other profiles.
4

Correlation analysis indicated that longer times from symptom onset to presentation were associated with poorer clinical outcomes.
5

Latent profile membership was confirmed as an independent prognostic factor for functional outcomes in AIS patients.
