Race, Ethnicity, and Gender Disparities in the Management and Outcomes of Critically Ill Adults with Acute Stroke.

Racial, ethnicity and sex disparities are pervasive in the evaluation and acute care of ischemic stroke patients. Administration of intravenous thrombolysis and mechanical thrombectomy are the most critical steps in ischemic stroke treatment but compared to White patients, ischemic stroke patients from minority racial and ethnic groups are less likely to receive these potentially life-saving interventions. Sex and racial disparities in intracerebral hemorrhage or subarachnoid hemorrhage treatment have not been well studied.
