Role of the Stroke Unit in Reducing the Medical and Neurological Complications Post Stroke in Patient Admitted at Royal Hospital from 2009-2015 (P2.318)
CONCLUSIONS: Medical complications that follow acute stroke not only influence mortality but may influence functional outcome. Stroke patients who receive organized inpatient care in a stroke unit are less likely to be developing medical complications post strokeDisclosure: Dr. Al-Hashmi has nothing to disclose.

Acute Stroke Code Accuracy in the Inpatient Versus Emergency Department (ED) Setting (S16.003)
Conclusion FP were more common for inpatient versus ED codes AMS or SS were infrequently associated with stroke diagnosis. Better education for non-neuroscience hospital providers, regarding acute stroke criteria, is needed.Disclosure: Dr. Schneck has received research support from NIH (POINT, COSS, ARUBA, ALIAS, Lundbeck (DIAS4), TIMI-50 Consortium, and Local PI Multicenter Clincial trials.

Nurse-Activated Acute Stroke Codes in the Emergency Setting Improves Process and Clinical Outcomes (S16.006)
Conclusions: Nurse-activated stroke codes considerably improved both process and clinical outcomes in the ED setting. Triage protocols should be continually evaluated and adjusted to minimize crucial minutes in acute stroke treatment.Disclosure: Dr. Song has nothing to disclose. Dr. Diebolt has nothing to disclose.

Prehospital systolic blood pressure is higher in acute stroke compared with stroke mimics
Conclusions: Prehospital SBP is higher in acute stroke relative to stroke mimics and highest in ICH. Given the stability of BP between initial EMS and ED measurements, it may be reasonable to test the feasibility and safety of prehospital antihypertensive therapy in patients with suspected acute stroke.

Comparison of On-hour vs Off-hour Patient Cohorts at a Primary Stroke Center: Onset-To-Treatment Duration and Clinical Outcomes after IV Thrombolysis (S21.005)
CONCLUSIONS: We found no significant differences in OTT durations, stroke severity, or stroke outcomes between patients whose symptoms originated during on-hours vs off-hours. This represents progress in emergency response, recognition and acute stroke care delivered by our Emergency Department staff and acute stroke team on a 24 hour basis and likely reflects nationwide efforts to provide consistent care for acute stroke patients.Disclosure: Dr. Nystrom has nothing to disclose.

Analysis of Risk Factors for In-Hospital Stroke Mortality and Stroke Readmission in Hospital Risoleta Tolentino Neves (HRTN) - Belo Horizonte, Brazil (P1.213)
Conclusions: This study identified previous history of AF, cardiopathy and diabetes as risk-factors for increased stroke in-hospital mortality. We also identified that cardioembolic stroke, previous Chagas' disease and prosthetic heart valve increased the risk of readmission.Disclosure: Dr. Meira has nothing to disclose.

Epidemiology and Outcomes of In-Hospital Cardiac Arrest after Stroke in the United States (P1.222)
Conclusions: Approximately 3 out of every 1000 patients hospitalized with stroke experiences IHCA. Risk and prognosis of IHCA varies by stroke subtype, with SAH patients being the most susceptible to IHCA occurrence and poor post-IHCA outcomes.Disclosure: Dr. Akinboro has nothing to disclose.

Analysis of Diagnostic Accuracy, Workflow and Time to Treatment during In-house 'Stroke Codes (P4.282)
Conclusions:Only a minority of ‘stroke codes’ were activated for new ischemic stroke/TIA or large vessel occlusion, while the remaining codes were for altered mental status, seizure, or non-neurologic etiologies. A notable delay occurred between time of code call and imaging. Improved identification of focal symptoms and use of parallel processing for evaluation will be studied in a prospective analysis in effort to improve patient identification and response times.Disclosure: Dr. Manners has nothing to disclose.

Total small vessel disease score and risk of recurrent stroke: Validation in 2 large cohorts
Conclusions: The total SVD score has predictive value for recurrent stroke after TIA/ischemic stroke. Prediction of recurrence in patients with nonlacunar events highlights the potential role of SVD in wider stroke etiology.

Aspirin for acute stroke of unknown etiology in resource-limited settings: A decision analysis
Conclusion: Aspirin treatment for the period of initial hospitalization after acute stroke of undetermined etiology is predicted to decrease acute stroke-related mortality and in-hospital stroke recurrence even at the highest reported proportion of acute strokes due to ICH. In the absence of clinical trials to test this approach empirically, clinical decisions require patient-specific evaluation of risks and benefits of aspirin in this context.

Performance of bedside stroke recognition tools in discriminating childhood stroke from mimics
Conclusions: Adult stroke recognition tools perform poorly in children and require modification to be useful for pediatric stroke identification. Classification of evidence: This study provides Class II evidence that, for children presenting to the ED with brain attack symptoms, the CPSS and ROSIER tools do not accurately distinguish strokes from mimics.
