Integration of Real-Time Electronic Health Records and Wireless Technology in a Mobile Stroke Unit
Background: UCHealth's Mobile Stroke Unit (MSU) at University of Colorado Hospital is an ambulance equipped with a computed tomography (CT) scanner and tele-stroke capabilities that began clinical operation in Aurora, Colorado January 2016. As one of the first MSU's in the United States, it was necessary to design unique and dynamic information technology infrastructure. This includes high-speed cellular connectivity, Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act compliance, cloud-based and remote access to electronic medical records (EMR), and reliable and rapid image transfer.

Letter to the Editor Regarding “Relationship of Malnutrition during Hospitalization with Functional Recovery and Postdischarge Destination in Elderly Stroke Patients”
We read with great interest the article by Sato et al on the relationship of malnutrition with acute stroke in 205 patients hospitalized at the Shinshu University hospital, Japan.1 We would like to provide an additional nationwide United States (US) perspective on outcomes of hospitalized stroke patients with protein energy malnutrition (PEM).

Social Network Simulation Identifies Persistent Racial Disparities Of Delay To Hospital In Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients
Delayed arrival to the hospital remains the major reason for not deploying stroke therapies. In the United States, minority patients have longer delays that have not been adequately understood nor acted upon. Social context plays a key role, because most strokes occur in front of witnesses who influence decision-making. We created a social network simulation to understand the interpersonal factors that influence decision-making following acute stroke, particularly in minority patients.

Effect of COVID-19 Pandemic on Mechanical Thrombectomy for Acute Ischemic Stroke Treatment in United States
There is accumulating data suggesting that the ischemic stroke may be increased in patients with corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) due to hyper coagulopathy1,2. An increase in acute ischemic stroke patients who require mechanical thrombectomy is to be expected particularly in regions with high rates of COVID-191.

Intravenous tPA for Acute Ischemic Stroke in Patients with COVID-19
We present a multicenter case series from 9 centers in the United States of patients with acute neurological deficits consistent with AIS and COVID-19 who were treated with IV tPA.Results: We identified 13 patients (mean age 62 ( ±9.8) years, 9 (69.2%) male).

Outcomes of Homeless Ischemic Stroke Patients Receiving Intravenous Thrombolysis in the United States
Morbidity and mortality among homeless people with cardiovascular diseases and stroke in the United States is high. Adverse outcomes within the homeless population may be the result of seeking care too late to receive time-sensitive interventions. We sought to investigate the impact of homelessness on ischemic stroke patients who received intravenous thrombolysis (IVT).

Annual Direct Cost of Dysphagia Associated with Acute Ischemic Stroke in the United States
Dysphagia after acute ischemic stroke is frequent and increases the risk of pneumonia, insertion of feeding tube, hospital length-of-stay and rates of discharge to institutional care. However, the financial impact of dysphagia after acute ischemic stroke is not well understood.

Trends in post-discharge prophylactic anticoagulant use among stroke patients in the United States between 2006 and 2019
Stroke is an independent risk factor for venous thromboembolism (VTE). Although the risk of VTE persists after hospital discharge, information on the utilization of anticoagulants among stroke patients after discharge remains limited.

Outcomes with IV tenecteplase and IV alteplase for acute ischemic stroke with or without thrombectomy in real-world settings in the United States
Although many stroke centers in United States are using intravenous (IV) tenecteplase (TNK) for acute ischemic stroke patients, there is paucity of comparative data between IV TNK and IV alteplase from real-world settings.

Healthcare expenditure trends among adult stroke patients in the United States, 2011-2020
In the US, between 2018 and 2019, approximately $57 billion were expended on stroke and related conditions. The aim of this study was to understand trends in direct healthcare expenditures among stroke patients using novel cost estimation methods and a nationally representative database.

Blood Pressure Management after Mechanical Thrombectomy for Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Survey of the StrokeNet Sites
It is unclear what factors providers take into account to determine the target blood pressure (BP) after mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in patients who had acute ischemic stroke. We aimed to understand practice patterns of post-MT BP management across institutions in the United States.
