E-046 Procedural Efficiency of the Streamlined Launchpad Stroke Admission Paradigm - A Single Center Experience

ConclusionThe streamlined stroke activation Launchpad protocol demonstrated an increased speed in patient admission and significant reduction in time from presentation to CT scan. This significant improvement in processing time allowed for an increased number of patients to meet the therapeutic window for IV tPA eligibility. A prospective trial will strengthen the current finding and support the implementation of this paradigm amongst other stroke centers.DisclosuresK. Sivakumar: None. S. Feuerwerker: None. D.
