External validity of post-stroke interventional gait rehabilitation studies.
CONCLUSIONS: The external validity of a substantial number of intervention studies about rehabilitation of gait post-stroke appears to be limited by exclusivity of the samples as well as by deficiencies in ecological validity of the interventions. These limitations are not accurately reflected in the titles or abstracts of the studies. PMID: 27145119 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Multicentre collection of uniform data on patients hospitalised for transient ischaemic attack or stroke in the Philippines: the Philippine Neurological Association One Database-Stroke (PNA1DB-Stroke) protocol
Introduction For scientific advances to translate into improved patient outcomes, systems of care must be in place to facilitate delivery of care. There is scarce information on quality of care and clinical outcome in our stroke patients. We aim to collect uniform data from patients with first or recurrent transient ischaemic attack (TIA) or ischaemic or haemorrhagic stroke to determine in-patient caseload, patient profile, types of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, outcomes and overall quality of care among patients hospitalised for acute stroke in the Philippines. Methods and analysis This multicentre observational...

Thrombolytic Utilization in Ischemic Stroke Is Significantly Higher in US Hospitals with Neurology Residency Program (S02.006)
CONCLUSIONS: Stroke care at NR hospitals is associated with an increased thrombolytic utilization rate. The increased tPA utilization at NR between 2002-2006 may be related to the rapid increase in Primary Stroke Centers across the country.Disclosure: Dr. Moradiya has nothing to disclose.

Characteristics of Certified Stroke Center Programs Led by Vascular Neurologists (P3.123)
CONCLUSION: Vascular neurologists are more likely to be found leading stroke programs at larger hospitals with established teaching programs. This may be a reflection of the concentration of multiple subspecialties in such institutions.Disclosure: Dr. Ramirez has nothing to disclose. Dr. Krug has nothing to disclose.

Stroke education in the Philippines
Education is paramount in effectively reducing the significant burden of stroke in the Philippines. Dedicated academic institutions and dynamic professional organizations in the Philippines have collaborated to involve themselves in the plight against stroke through systematic curriculum development for undergraduates, continuous regulation of quality residency and fellowship training program, hosting up‐to‐date Continuing Medical Education (CME) activities for local and international audience, and active participation in clinical stroke trials. Most recently, the University of Santo Tomas Faculty of Medicine & Sur...

Thrombolytic utilization for ischemic stroke in US hospitals with neurology residency program
Conclusions: Acute stroke care in NR hospitals is associated with an increased thrombolytic utilization. The disparities between the thrombolysis rate in NR and that in OT and NT hospitals are greater among elderly patients.

Seasonal Variation in 30-Day Mortality After Stroke: Teaching Versus Nonteaching Hospitals Brief Reports
Conclusions— The 30-day RAMR decreased overall, but seasonal patterns were present, with the highest RAMR in January and a smaller peak in July. Because patterns were similar for teaching and nonteaching hospitals, the July peak cannot be explained by the introduction of new trainees in the beginning of the academic year. The reasons for these seasonal patterns warrant further investigation.

Differences in Payment for Inpatient Transient Ischemic Attack Care Between Stroke Center and Non-Stroke-Center Hospitals (P3.128)
Conclusions: There is a wide discrepancy in hospital charges and covered payments for TIA hospitalization. Larger for-profit hospitals with primary stroke center certification located in more affluent areas charge more for TIA hospitalization.Disclosure: Dr. He has nothing to disclose.

Spanish Version of the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale: Awareness and Use in the United States. A Survey Study (P6.023)
Conclusion: Neurology and Emergency medicine training programs are generally not aware of the availability of the NIHSS Spanish version. There is a need to increase awareness and to promote the use of the Spanish version of the NIHSS and to address the validation of its use by interpreters given the large and expected increase in the population of Hispanics.Disclosure: Dr. Villalobos has nothing to disclose.

Early Access to a Neurologist Reduces the Rate of Missed Diagnosis in Young Strokes
Conclusions: Young adults with ischemic stroke seen at hospitals with a neurology residency had a lower missed diagnosis rate. The presence of an EM resident or a neurology teaching program was associated with a greater use of acute stroke therapies. These results support initiatives to triage young adults with suspected acute stroke to hospitals with access to neurologic expertise in the emergency department.

Intracerebral Hemorrhage: The 'Other' Stroke
J Mocco, MD, MS Professor and Vice Chair for Education Director, Cerebrovascular Center Residency Program Director Department of Neurological Surgery Mount Sinai Health System Intracerebral Hemorrhage: The 'Other' Stroke A recent patient of mine, 48-year-old "Joe" (not his real name), was eating with his family at an Italian restaurant. Suddenly, he stood up, cursed, and collapsed. They brought him to the hospital, and he could not talk, move, or do anything we asked him to do. It turned out that Joe had suffered the second-most common, but deadliest, form of stroke: intracerebral hemorrhage. When people hear "stroke,...

Abstract 215: Differing Perspectives Between Physicians, Patients And Caregivers On The Value Of An Individualized Estimate Of The Benefits Of Thrombolysis At The Time Of Acute Ischemic Stroke: Designing The Resolve (Rapid Evaluation for Stroke Outcomes using Lytics in Vascular Event) Decision Aid Poster Session II
Conclusions: Preliminary findings suggest reluctance by emergency physicians to share data about the benefits of rt-PA to stroke patients and their caregivers, despite the desire of the latter for such information. While the additional planned interviews will be needed to confirm these findings, preliminary insights suggest a compelling need to overcome the reticence of emergency physicians to use clinical data to better engage patients in making a shared decision about rt-PA in AIS.

The emerging partnership between palliative care and stroke
Stroke care displays 2 truisms. First, a severe stroke is a common event often close to one's death. It unleashes a series of intense conversations among clinicians, patients, and families, rife with uncertainty, about health states with varying degrees of acceptability and what makes life worth living.1 Second, enormous variations in clinical practice remain prevalent, including end-of-life care practices. This end-of-life practice variation has been called a hidden curriculum, providing medical students with insights into how the location of their residency training helps shape the type of physicians they will become.2 I...
