Telemedicine remote controlled stroke evaluation and treatment, the experience of radiographers, paramedics and junior doctors in a novel rural stroke management team
In the case of ischemic stroke, access to a Computed Tomography (CT) scanner and the start of thrombolytic therapy immediately is imperative. Transport to the nearest hospital from the remote, rural area of Ha...

Effect of prehospital notification on acute stroke care: a multicenter study
The sooner thrombolytic therapy is given to acute ischemic stroke patients, the better the outcome. Prehospital notification may shorten the time between hospital arrival and brain computed tomography (door-to...

Ipsilateral Vocal Cord Paralysis After Acute Anterior Ischemic Stroke
CONCLUSION: Our case is a rare case of transient ipsilateral vocal cord paralysis associated with anterior unilateral cerebral ischemia. The paralysis resolved with improvement of the cerebral ischemic penumbra.PMID:33635769 | DOI:10.7812/TPP/20.104

The Effects of DWI ‐Infarct Lesion Volume on DWI‐FLAIR Mismatch: Is There a Need for Size Stratification?
CONCLUSIONThe effects of stroke onset‐to‐scan time gap on DWI‐FLAIR mismatch are not the same for different DWI lesion volumes. At DWI lesion volumes >15 mL, the DWI‐FLAIR mismatch is highly specific for acute infarcts within IV thrombolytic therapy time, and can identify wake‐up stroke patients eligible for treatment.

HAT Score External Validity: A Predictor Of Hemorrhagic Transformation After Intravenous Thrombolysis (P3.107)
CONCLUSIONSThe consistency of the predictive capability of the scale in two great independent cohorts of t-PA-treated patients ( NINDS and HAT score ), and the presence of similar results in our cohort, indicate that this score is likely to have good external validity.Disclosure: Dr. Neto has nothing to disclose.

Le développement actuel de la télémédecine en Allemagne
Conclusion La promulgation récente d’une loi sur l’organisation des soins en Allemagne, incluant la pratique de la télémédecine, et la mise en place d’une stratégie nationale de développement par le ministère fédéral de la Santé sont des signes en faveur d’un développement plus rapide de la télémédecine. Objectives To assess the state of development of telemedicine in Germany in 2013, identify the strengths and weaknesses of existing organisations, as well as the medium-term outlook. Methods Collection of data from the registry established by the institute für Arbeit und Technik and the statistics ...

Thrombolytic therapy for pulmonary embolism.
CONCLUSIONS: There is low quality evidence that thrombolytics reduce death following acute pulmonary embolism compared with heparin. Furthermore, thrombolytic therapies included in the review were heterogeneous. Thrombolytic therapy may be helpful in reducing the recurrence of pulmonary emboli but may cause more major and minor haemorrhagic events and stroke. More high quality double blind RCTs assessing safety and cost-effectiveness are required. PMID: 26419832 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Nano-zymography Using Laser-Scanning Confocal Microscopy Unmasks Proteolytic Activity of Cell-Derived Microparticles
Cell-derived microparticles (MPs) are nano-sized vesicles released by activated cells in the extracellular milieu. They act as vectors of biological activity by carrying membrane-anchored and cytoplasmic constituents of the parental cells. Although detection and characterization of cell-derived MPs may be of high diagnostic and prognostic values in a number of human diseases, reliable measurement of their size, number and biological activity still remains challenging using currently available methods. In the present study, we developed a protocol to directly image and functionally characterize MPs using high-resolution las...

Full percutaneous biventricular support with two Impella pumps: the Bi ‐Pella approach
We report the first case of mechanical circulatory supported with Impella CP on the left and Impella RP on the right (Abiomed Inc., Danvers, MA) for acute biventricular failure due to suspected acute myocarditis in the context of thrombolytic therapy for ischaemic stroke.

Thrombolytic therapy for pulmonary embolism
CONCLUSIONS: Low-certainty evidence suggests that thrombolytics may reduce death following acute pulmonary embolism compared with heparin (the effectiveness was mainly driven by one trial with massive PE). Thrombolytic therapy may be helpful in reducing the recurrence of pulmonary emboli but may cause more major and minor haemorrhagic events, including haemorrhagic stroke. More studies of high methodological quality are needed to assess safety and cost effectiveness of thrombolytic therapy for people with pulmonary embolism.PMID:33857326 | DOI:10.1002/14651858.CD004437.pub6

A multicenter, randomized, double‐blinded, placebo‐controlled phase III study of Clot Lysis Evaluation of Accelerated Resolution of Intraventricular Hemorrhage (CLEAR III)
BackgroundIn adults, intraventricular thrombolytic therapy with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) facilitates resolution of intraventricular haemorrhage (IVH), reduces intracranial pressure, decreases duration of cerebrospinal fluid diversion, and may ameliorate direct neural injury. We hypothesize that patients with small parenchymal haematoma volumes (<30 cc) and relatively large IVH causing acute obstructive hydrocephalus would have improved clinical outcomes when given injections of low‐dose rtPA to accelerate lysis and evacuation of IVH compared with placebo. MethodsThe Clot Lysis Evaluation of Ac...

Computed tomography angiography source images closely reflect the integrity of collateral circulation
Conclusions CTA-SI and CS convey overlapping information. CTA-SI is not a significant predictor of the clinical outcome three months after intravenous thrombolysis when the other CTA-based parameters, CS and the clot location, are considered simultaneously. CTA-SI may have a role in the assessment of the extent of irreversible ischemic changes at admission if contrast injection and image acquisition protocols are designed suitably.
