The Oversimplification of Cholesterol Testing Can Be Deadly
Early every year, countless Americans embark on a new fitness regime. They go for a physical and maybe for a blood test to measure cholesterol levels. After a clean bill of health, they might train to run a 10K, a marathon or even an Iron man. But what if those tests do not provide a complete picture of your health? What if you are on the verge of a heart attack and have no idea? Before 30, when the human body is at its peak, it can take the strain of being pushed to the limit. As we age, however, cellular changes and the expression of genetic predispositions can dramatically alter our health. Conventional medical tests a...

Multidisciplinary In Situ Mock Stroke Codes Improve Thrombolytic Delivery by Decreasing Door To Needle Times in a Comprehensive Stroke Center. (P6.086)
Conclusions: Door to needle time is reduced as a result of MSCs. MSCs should be routinely performed at CSCs to improve door to needle time and patient outcomes.Disclosure: Dr. Burshtein has nothing to disclose. Dr. Kapoor has nothing to disclose.

A cluster-randomised quality improvement study to improve two inpatient stroke quality indicators
Conclusion Quality improvement training was associated with early DVT improvement, but the effect was not sustained over time and was not seen with dysphagia screening. External quality improvement programmes may quickly boost performance but their effect may vary by indicator and may not sustain over time.

Assessment of Device-Related Thrombus and Associated Clinical Outcomes With the WATCHMAN Left Atrial Appendage Closure Device for Embolic Protection in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation (from the PROTECT-AF Trial)
Left atrial appendage closure with the WATCHMAN device is an alternative to anticoagulation for stroke prevention in selected patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). LA device-related thrombus (DRT) is poorly defined and understood. We aimed to (1) develop consensus echocardiographic diagnostic criteria for DRT; (2) estimate the incidence of DRT; and (3) determine clinical event rates in patients with DRT. In phase 1 (training), a training manual was developed and reviewed by 3 echocardiographers with left atrial appendage closure device experience.

Board #247 - Program Innovation Engaging Learners in an Annual Nursing Staff Competency Blitz through Video Simulations (Submission #9201).
Conclusion: Over 1,500 staff nurses and 500 assistive personnel participated in the nursing competency blitz over a two-week time frame. Overall, the nursing staff was very positive about the format and use of simulation to ensure competency. Approximately 48% of staff rated the use of video simulations for Blitz as being extremely effective (e.g. 10 on a 1-10 scale), with over 86% rating the effectiveness at an 8 or higher. Time to complete the competencies was much less (715 total hours) than expected (1400 hours) based on previous years. Improvements in competency were noted for both staff nurses (improvement in scores ...

Microwave-Based Stroke Diagnosis Making Global Prehospital Thrombolytic Treatment Possible
Here, we present two different brain diagnostic devices based on microwave technology and the associated two first proof-of-principle measurements that show that the systems can differentiate hemorrhagic from ischemic stroke in acute stroke patients, as well as differentiate hemorrhagic patients from healthy volunteers. The system was based on microwave scattering measurements with an antenna system worn on the head. Measurement data were analyzed with a machine-learning algorithm that is based on training using data from patients with a known condition. Computer tomography images were used as reference. The detection meth...

Development Of A Simulated Patient Exercise To Improve Acute Stroke Care By Neurology Residents (S30.007)
CONCLUSIONS:Simulation exercises focusing on patient and family counseling may improve resident preparedness to deliver acute stroke care. These simulations may serve a role in more broad hospital-based quality improvement and educational interventions aimed at eliminating treatment delays for acute stroke.Study Supported by:University of Rochester Medical Center Dean's Teaching Fellowship Program and the Donald W. Reynolds FoundationDisclosure: Dr. Jozefowicz has received personal compensation in an editorial capacity for The Neurologist.

Arterial Closure Devices for Treatment of Inadvertent Large-Caliber Catheter Insertion Into the Subclavian or Carotid Artery: A Case Series of Five Patients
CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETERIZATION is a common procedure in today`s medicine. Iatrogenic complications occur in up to 34% of catheter placements including 5% of arterial puncture. A variety of complications by arterial puncture have recently been described, including airway obstruction, pseudoaneurysms, arteriovenous fistulas, and even stroke caused by arterial thrombosis or embolization. Although 2-D ultrasound assisted insertion of large central venous catheters may reduce adverse events, it might not be available in an emergency setting, and the use of ultrasound guidance requires training. Depending on anatomic localizatio...
