Overview

Project evaluates enhanced treatment times in acute stroke response using Advanced Practice Providers, suggesting effective multidisciplinary collaboration.

Key Points

  • The research aims to assess the impact of integrating Advanced Practice Providers into acute stroke response workflows on treatment times.
  • Incorporated eight Advanced Practice Providers into the stroke response team.
  • Trained APPs in acute stroke protocols to respond to alerts across hospital settings.
  • Compared treatment times for stroke activations before and after APP integration.
  • Monitored changes in key metrics as more APPs were added over time.
  • Median door-to-needle time for thrombolysis decreased by 33 minutes for inpatients.
  • Median door-to-device time for thrombectomy decreased by 37 minutes for inpatients.
  • For ED patients, median door-to-needle time decreased by 4 minutes.
  • Median door-to-device time for ED patients decreased by 34 minutes.
  • Improved adherence to stroke care guidelines across all settings.
