The clinical-diffusion mismatch (CDM) model has been proposed as a simpler tool than perfusion-diffusion mismatch (PDM) to select acute ischemic stroke patients for thrombolytic therapy. We hypothesized that in the 3- to 6-hour time window, the effect of tPA was significantly greater in patients with CDM than in patients without CDM.
