Logistic regression models showing the association between emergency medical services training and acute stroke care performance measure and hospital-based outcomes.

Outcome Unadjusted Adjusted

OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval; PPV, positive predictive value; CT, computed tomography; IVT, intravenous thrombolysis.
