BACKGROUND: Early in-patient MR Imaging may assist in identifying stroke etiology, facilitating prompt secondary prevention for ischemic strokes (IS), and potentially enhancing patient outcomes. This study explores the impact of early in patient MRI on IS patient outcomes and healthcare resource use beyond the hyper-acute stage.
METHODS: In this retrospective registry-based study, 771 admitted transient ischemic attack (TIA) and IS patients at Halifax's QEII Health Centre from 2015 to 2019 underwent in-patient MRI. Cohort was categorized into two groups based on MRI timing: early (within 48 h) and late. Logistic regression and Poisson log-linear models, adjusted for age, sex, stroke severity, acute stroke protocol (ASP) activation, thrombolytic, and thrombectomy, were employed to examine in-hospital, discharge, post-discharge, and healthcare resource utilization outcomes.
RESULTS: Among the cohort, 39.6 % received early in-patient MRI. ASP activation and TIA were associated with a higher likelihood of receiving early MRI. Early MRI was independently associated with a lower rate of symptomatic changes in neurological status during hospitalization (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 0.42; 95 % confidence interval [CI], 0.20-0.88), higher odds of good functional outcomes at discharge (1.55; 1.11-2.16), lower rate of non-home discharge (0.65; 0.46-0.91), shorter length of stay (regression coefficient, 0.93; 95 % CI, 0.89-0.97), and reduced direct cost of hospitalization (0.77; 0.75-0.79).
CONCLUSION: Early in-patient MRI utilization in IS patients post-hyper-acute stage was independently associated with improved patient outcomes and decreased healthcare resource utilization, underscoring the potential benefits of early MRI during in-patient management of IS. Further research, including randomized controlled trials, is warranted to validate these findings.
