Supplemental dataNo funding sources had part in the design and conduct of the study; collection, management, analysis, and interpretation of the data; or preparation, review, or approval of the manuscript; or the decision to submit the manuscript for publication. SICH/SITS 2.7% vs. 1.6%, aOR 1.62(1.12-2.34, p=0.01).
5Conclusions: In this observational study, unselected patients >80-years treated with IVT after 3h versus earlier had a slightly higher rate of SICH but similar unadjusted functional outcome but poorer adjusted outcome. The absolute difference between the treatment groups is small and elderly patients should not be denied IVT in the later time window solely for age without other contraindications.
