Abstract
In-hospital strokes, that is new strokes occurring among hospitalized patients, account for 6.5–15% of all strokes. Compared to community-onset stroke patients, in-hospital stroke patients tend to have worse functional and mortality outcomes. This review addresses the characteristics of acute in-hospital ischemic strokes, reasons these patients have worse outcomes compared to community-onset stroke patients, and future steps to improve outcomes.
