The Risk for In-Patient Stroke (RIPS) Scale: Development of a Stroke Recognition Instrument (P6.027)

Comment: Well-organized stroke service reduces the burden of stroke
The idea, presented here, that emergency medical services transporting acute stroke patients should bypass hospitals without stroke units (SUs) and experience in IV stroke thrombolysis (IVT) is not new, but now it is based on evidence.1 Hospitals without SU and experience in stroke IVT treated fewer potential thrombolysis candidates than experienced stroke centers (SCs). This was the case in patients over 80 years of age and those with preexisting disabilities, although patients treated at SCs with IVT had equally low mortality as the rest of the IVT-treated patients.1 The finding that patients treated off-label with IVT h...

Why are acute ischemic stroke patients not receiving IV tPA?: Results from a national registry
Conclusions: Overall, about one-quarter of eligible patients with AIS presenting within 2 hours of stroke onset failed to receive tPA treatment. Thrombolysis has improved dramatically over time and is strongly associated with stroke center certification. Additionally, some groups, including older patients, milder strokes, women, and minorities, may be undertreated.

Carotid artery web and ischemic stroke: A case-control study
Conclusions: There is an association between carotid artery web and ischemic stroke in patients who lack an alternative cause of stroke. Carotid web may be an underappreciated risk factor for stroke.

MELAS Syndrome: How Stroke-like are the Stroke episodes? (P1.255)
Conclusions:Patients with MELAS syndrome may present with recurrent strokes in the arterial territory rather than SLEs. Clinicians should entertain the possibility of a mitochondrial disease in young patients with cryptogenic stroke and pursue appropriate diagnostic evaluations and treatment.Disclosure: Dr. Liaw has nothing to disclose.

Diffusion Tensor Imaging of Corticospinal Tract Recovery after Intra-arterial Mesenchymal Stem Cell Infusion in a Canine Stroke Model (P1.266)
Conclusions:Serial DTI-DTT imaging after IA MSCs therapy in large animal stroke model appears to have a trend towards higher change in FA. These findings could support further development of DTI-DTT biomarkers to measure neurologic recovery in experimental models as well as early clinical trials of novel stroke therapies.Disclosure: Dr. Guada has nothing to disclose.

Delays in Door-to-Needle Time for Acute Ischemic Stroke in the Emergency Department: A Comprehensive Stroke Center Experience (P4.273)
Conclusions:Important and common causes of delay in IVT for AIS were identified in a review of charts at our comprehensive stroke center. The authors recommend strategies to achieve faster DTN time for each of the delaying factor categories including faster acquisition and interpretation of stroke imaging, more effective triage protocols, and faster blood pressure control for AIS patients who are eligible for IVT.Disclosure: Dr. Mowla has nothing to disclose.

Characterizing Ischemic Stroke and Hemorrhagic Conversion in Infectious Endocarditis (P6.297)

Emergent MRI during a Stroke Alert. Single center experience. (P6.299)
Conclusions:Clinical presentation and head CT provide sufficient information for decision making about provision of IV tPA. Emergent MRI increases door-to-needle time and may only be used in rare cases when history is not available. Presence of headache, absence of atrial fibrillation and low NIHSS score may help differentiating stroke mimics from AIS.Disclosure: Dr. Kapoor has nothing to disclose.
