Changes in Stroke Hospital Care During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Stroke 52:3651-3660, Katsanos, A.H.,et al, 2021
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
The present systematic review and meta-analysis indicates an increased prevalence of younger patients, more severe strokes attributed to large vessel occlusion, and higher endovascular treatment rates during the COVID-19 pandemic. Patients admitted with stroke during the COVID-19 pandemic had higher in-hospital mortality. These findings need to be interpreted with caution in view of discrepant reports and heterogeneity being present across studies.
