Background Transition from International Classification of Diseases (ICD) Ninth and Tenth Revisions (ICD‐9 and ICD‐10) for hospital discharge data was mandated for US hospitals on October 1, 2015. We examined the volume of patients receiving thrombolysis in ischemic stroke (IS) identified using ICD...

With Strategy 1, analysis using a linear spline with 2 knots shows that the volume of patients with IS treated with IV thrombolysis was significantly different between study periods 1 and 2 (slope difference −1880, 95% CI −2834 to −928, P=0.005), and periods 2 to 3 (slope difference 1980, 95% CI 1207–2754, P = 0.002).
