How Do Physicians Approach Intravenous Alteplase Treatment in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke Who Are Eligible for Intravenous Alteplase and Endovascular Therapy? Insights from UNMASK-EVT

Resources gap (ideal minus current intravenous alteplase rates) in different countries. In green countries, the resources gap was positive (>1%)—ie, physicians would want to treat more patients with intravenous alteplase in an ideal environment than they currently do under their current local resources. Pink countries are those with no resources gap—ie, the intravenous alteplase treatment decision under assumed ideal conditions matched the one under current local resources. In blue countries, the resources gap was negative—ie, physicians are currently treating more patients with intravenous alteplase than they would like to in an ideal environment.
