Stroke Care in the United Kingdom During the COVID-19 Pandemic

Abdel Douiri et al.

Summary: The initial wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in the UK led to a decrease in admissions for acute stroke patients, with older patients and those with less severe strokes being more affected. While quality of stroke care was maintained and even improved in some aspects, there was an increase in inpatient case fatality, especially among patients with confirmed or suspected COVID-19 infections. These findings suggest that hospital avoidance during the pandemic may have resulted in untreated stroke patients with poorer outcomes, highlighting the need for resilient healthcare systems.
