The Stroke Angel initiative investigates the implementation of telemedicine for improvement of preclinical communication between emergency medical services (EMS) and stroke units in cases of acute stroke.Stroke Angel is a technical system for the telemedical prenotification of patients in cases of suspected stroke at a stroke unit by the EMS. Within the framework of an observational study, the team has been investigating the effects of the system on door-to-computed tomography (CT) and door-to-needle times as well as the lysis rate in the neighboring regions of Rhön-Grabfeld and Bad Kissingen since 2005.The system supports the acute treatment of neurological emergencies and functions as a catalyst for the interlinking of medical institutions in the region as well as for communication between emergency physicians/EMS and hospital physicians. The use of a computer-based data collection enables a continuous improvement process leading to an acceleration of internal clinical procedures and an increase of the lysis rate with the mortality rate staying constant.Telemedicine is applicable in the preclinical care of acute stroke and, thanks to the computer-based data collection, leads to an increase in process transparency, which helps to improve the internal clinical processes in and around a stroke unit. |
