Multi-Feature Fusion Method Based on EEG Signal and its Application in Stroke Classification
AbstractElectroencephalogram (EEG) analysis has been widely used in the diagnosis of stroke diseases for its low cost and noninvasive characteristics. In order to classify the EEG signals of stroke patients with cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage, this paper proposes a novel EEG stroke signal classification method. This method has two highlights. The first is that a multi-feature fusion method is given by combining wavelet packet energy, fuzzy entropy and hierarchical theory. The second highlight is that a suitable classification model based on ensemble classifier is constructed for perfectly classification stroke...

Podcast: Cerebrolysin for acute ischaemic stroke
When someone has an acute ischemic stroke, urgent and reliable treatments will reduce their risks of disability or dying from their brain tissue damage. The treatments used vary around the world, and a drug called cerebrolysin is widely used in post-Soviet countries, Eastern Europe, Central and Southeast Asia. In April 2017, the latest update of this review was published by researchers from Kazan Federal University in Russia and Chinara Razzakova, a PhD student from the university interviewed one of the authors, Liliya Eugenevna, for this podcast." This Cochrane Review is about a medicine called cerebrolysin, which is used...

Featured Review: Endovascular thrombectomy for acute ischaemic stroke
In thisrecently published Cochrane review, authors explored the effects of treating acute ischaemic stroke with endovascular thrombectomy and intra-arterial interventions.First author Melinda Roaldsen said: " This review of endovascular thrombectomy for acute ischaemic stroke strongly reinforces the efficacy and safety of endovascular interventions. Endovascular thrombectomy is a treatment modality in rapid development and continues to gain significance in acute stroke care. This review finds high evidence that endovascular thrombectomy improves functional and neurological outcomes without increasing intracerebral haemorrh...

Post t-PA transfer to hub improves outcome of moderate to severe ischemic stroke patients
Conclusions Patients with moderate to severe ischemic strokes who were treated with t-PA in a telestroke network may potentially benefit from expert care at a primary stroke center.

Intravenous thrombolytic therapy for ischemic stroke via telemedicine compared with bedside treatment in an experienced stroke unit
Conclusions This study demonstrates that the telestroke system, Virtuall, is as safe and effective in initiating rt-PA treatment as bedside evaluation in an experienced stroke unit, despite a longer intra-hospital time.

Combining transcranial ultrasound with intelligent communication methods to enhance the remote assessment and management of stroke patients: Framework for a technology demonstrator
With over 150,000 strokes in the United Kingdom every year, and more than 1 million living survivors, stroke is the third most common cause of death and the leading cause of severe physical disability among adults. A major challenge in administering timely treatment is determining whether the stroke is due to vascular blockage (ischaemic) or haemorrhage. For patients with ischaemic stroke, thrombolysis (i.e. pharmacological ‘clot-busting’) can improve outcomes when delivered swiftly after onset, and current National Health Service Quality Improvement Scotland guidelines are for thrombolytic therapy to be provid...

Increased volumes of mildly elevated capillary transit time heterogeneity positively predict favorable outcome and negatively predict intracranial hemorrhage in acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion.
CONCLUSION: An increased volume of mildly elevated CTH is a positive predictor of favorable outcome and a negative predictor for ICH in patients with acute ischemic stroke and mismatch undergoing ET. KEY POINTS: • The classification of potentially salvageable tissue and infarct core based on traditional net perfusion parameters (as Tmax or CBF) does not account for the microvascular distribution of blood. • However, the microvascular distribution of blood, as indexed by the capillary transit time heterogeneity (CTH), directly affects the availability of oxygen within the hypoperfused tissue and should therefore be...

Swedish Medical leads in stroke care
New findings published Dec. 17 in the New England Journal of Medicine affirms a practice for stroke response that has been employed by Donald Frei, MD, and the stroke team at Swedish Medical Center's Radiology Imaging Associates in Denver. As Frei sees it, the study results provide new hope for the 695,000 Americans who suffer an acute ischemic stroke each year, and it validates what he and his stroke team have practiced for years. read more

Efficacy of telemedicine for thrombolytic therapy in acute ischemic stroke: a meta-analysis
The aim of this study was to assess the benefits of telemedicine in the delivery of thrombolytic therapy for patients with acute ischemic stroke. We performed a meta-analysis using combinations of the following terms: telestroke, telemedicine, tissue plasminogen activator/t-PA, and acute ischemic stroke. The primary outcome was favorable outcome based on the modified Rankin score. Secondary outcomes were incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and overall mortality. We found no significant difference in favorable outcome between the telemedicine and control groups, and no significant difference was found between t...
