The Impact on Radiology Utilization of Disseminating an Analysis on the Value of Neuroimaging Studies in Intracerebral Hemorrhage: The University Hospitals Case Medical Center Comprehensive Stroke Center Experience (P5.145)
CONCLUSIONS: Disseminating the findings of our prior analysis regarding the use of neuroimaging studies for patients with ICH at our institution led to a significant reduction in resource case use for CT and MRI. Neuroimaging resource utilization, fostered by the availability of sophisticated neuroimaging, EMR standard order sets, and clinical trials protocols is an important area for research on the value of our health care. Healthcare value analyses should be driven by medical decision making, patient outcomes and risk then extend to resource utilization and cost.Study Supported by:NADisclosure: Dr. Shams has nothing to ...

Gender Equity in Leadership and Conferences of the Stroke Society of Australasia
Conclusions: Representation of women varied from 2014 to 2019 in the SSA organization and its conferences, although men are more often elected president in the organization and women are less often keynote speakers. When more women were included in the program committee, the representation of women as speakers increased.Cerebrovasc Dis

Robot-Assisted Therapy in Upper Extremity Hemiparesis: Overview of an Evidence-Based Approach
Conclusion Robotic therapy has matured and represents an embodiment of a paradigm shift in neurorehabilitation following a stroke: instead of focusing on compensation, it affords focus in ameliorating the impaired limb in line with concepts of neuroplasticity. This technology-based treatment provides intensity, interactivity, flexibility, and adaptiveness to patient's performance and needs. Furthermore, it increases the productivity of rehabilitation care. Of course, efficiency must be discussed within a local perspective. For example, following the cost containment shown in the VA ROBOTICS study (46), the UK Nati...

Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis Is Associated With Circadian and Other Variability in Embolus Detection
Conclusions: Embolism associated with asymptomatic carotid stenosis shows circadian variation with highest rates 4–6 h before midday. This corresponds with peak circadian incidence of stroke and other vascular complications. These and ASED Study results show that monitoring frequency, duration, and time of day are important in ES detection. Introduction Transcranial Doppler (TCD) detected microembolism in the ipsilateral middle cerebral artery (MCA) may help stratify the risk of stroke and other arterial disease complications in persons with advanced (≥60%) asymptomatic carotid stenosis. If so, this t...

Associations of Anemia With Outcomes in Patients With Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage: A Meta-Analysis
Conclusions: Anemia on admission was associated with higher mortality and an increased risk of poor outcome in patients with ICH. However, the results were limited by the high heterogeneity of included studies. Prospective, multi-center or population-based, large sample cohort studies are needed in the future. Introduction Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the second most common cause of stroke and a highly lethal disease (1), which still lacks effective therapeutic interventions (2, 3). Although age, baseline ICH volume and neurological status on admission are well-known predictors of outcome of ICH (4), none of t...

A Kinematic Study of Progressive Micrographia in Parkinson's Disease
This study has investigated the kinematic features of progressive micrographia during a repetitive writing task. Twenty-four PD patients with duration since diagnosis of <10 years and 24 age-matched controls wrote the letter “e” repeatedly. PD patients were studied in defined off states, with scoring of motor function on the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale Part III. A digital tablet captured x-y coordinates and ink-pen pressure. Customized software recorded the data and offline analysis derived the kinematic features of pen-tip movement. The average size of the first and the last fi...

Neurological Involvement in Primary Systemic Vasculitis
Conclusion Neurological involvement is a common complication of PSV (Table 1), and neurologists play an important role in the identification and diagnosis of PSV patients with otherwise unexplained neurological symptoms as their chief complaint. This article summarizes the neurological manifestations of PSV and hopes to improve neuroscientists' understanding of this broad range of diseases. TABLE 1 Table 1. Common CNS and PNS involvements of primary systemic vasculitis. Author Contributions SZ conceived the article and wrote the manuscript. DY and GT reviewed and edited the manuscript. All authors ...

Comparison of Intracranial Stent Placement and Best Medical Treatment Alone for Treatment of Symptomatic Intracranial Stenosis (P1.148)
CONCLUSIONS: Despite the higher risk of 1 month TIA/stroke-and/or-deaths, patients undergoing intracranial stent placement have similar rates of TIA/stroke-and/or-deaths at 1 year compared with medical treatment alone.Disclosure: Dr. Jadhav has nothing to disclose.

Rural iPad Telestroke (P6.031)
Conclusions: Not all calls to neurologists regarding stroke patients required video-conference. In 23 of 26, an improvement or change in care was judged to result from the addition of video-conference capability. The ability to use immediate, portable, inexpensive video-conference in the assessment of rural stroke patients is practical and beneficial.Disclosure: Dr. Falconer has nothing to disclose.
