Stroke Angel: Effect of Telemedical Prenotification on In-Hospital Delays and Systemic Thrombolysis in Acute Stroke Patients

Abstract: <b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Door-to-CT scan time (DCT) and door-to-needle time (DNT) are important process measures in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients undergoing intravenous thrombolysis (IVT). We examined the impact of a telemedical prenotification by emergency medical service (EMS) (called the “Stroke Angel” program) on DCT and DNT and IVT rate compared to standard of care. <b><i>Patients and Methods:</i></b> Two prospective observational studies including… Show more

Der Einsatz von informationstechnischen Lösungen kann eine Steigerung der Versorgungsqualität bewirken und das spätere Outcome des Patienten direkt beeinflussen [1,8,9,17]. International wächst seit Jahren das Interesse für digitale Anwendungen verschiedener Einsatzzwecke in der Notfallmedizin, wobei praxistaugliche Implementierungen in der Präklinik trotz ihrer zahlreichen Möglichkeiten bisher nur begrenzt zu finden sind [31].…”
