Integrating Individuals with Stroke into Cardiac Rehabilitation Following Traditional Stroke Rehabilitation: Promoting a Continuum of Care
Publication date: Available online 11 July 2018Source: Canadian Journal of CardiologyAuthor(s): Susan Marzolini, R. KinUnstructured AbstractIndividuals following stroke are at a high risk for a repeat stroke and for complications related to coronary artery disease. Indeed, stroke and coronary artery disease share many of the same risk factors. Unfortunately, patients become sedentary after stroke leading to cardiorespiratory deconditioning as well as muscle atrophy and weakness that leads to deterioration in metabolic, cardiorespiratory, and functional health. Access to intensive secondary prevention programs with a struct...

Interdisciplinary management of acute ischaemic stroke: Current evidence training requirements for endovascular stroke treatment: Position Paper from the ESC Council on Stroke and the European Association for Percutaneous Cardiovascular Interventions with the support of the European Board of Neurointervention
AbstractThis ESC Council on Stroke/EAPCI/EBNI position paper summarizes recommendations for training of cardiologists in endovascular treatment of acute ischaemic stroke. Interventional cardiologists adequately trained to perform endovascular stroke interventions could complement stroke teams to provide the 24/7 on call duty and thus to increase timely access of stroke patients to endovascular treatment. The training requirements for interventional cardiologists to perform endovascular therapy are described in details and should be based on two main principles: (i) patient safety cannot be compromised, (ii) proper training...

System-integrated technology-enabled model of care to improve the health of stroke patients in rural China: protocol for SINEMA--a cluster-randomized controlled trial
This study aims to develop a system-integrated technology-enabled intervention model of care (SINEMA) for the secondary prevention of stroke in rural China and to evaluate the effectiveness of the model compared with usual care.MethodsThe SINEMA model is being implemented and evaluated through a one-year cluster-randomized controlled trial in Nanhe County, Hebei Province in China. Fifty villages from five townships are randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either the intervention or the control arm (usual care) with a target to enroll 25 stroke survivors per village. Village doctors in the intervention arm 1) receive systematic cas...

Abstract 245: Assessing Patient Knowledge and Satisfaction Following Stroke Video Education Session Title: Poster Session PM
Conclusions: Based on this preliminary data, stroke patients enjoy video education in clinic. However, as patients in both groups were highly satisfied, it remains unclear whether video education increases overall satisfaction. Highly educated patients may bennefit from video education, but further enrollment will clarify this. A positive correlation between post-visit test score and satisfaction indicates that clinics should prioritize patient education.

Ethics and Bias in Clinical Trial Enrollment in Stroke
AbstractPurpose of ReviewTo familiarize the reader with ethical concerns and potential scientific bias in management and conduction of clinical stroke trials.Recent FindingsThe goal of clinical trials in stroke is to find effective interventions for stroke prevention, acute treatment, and rehabilitation and recovery. Acute trials must be designed in the context of the time-sensitivity of revascularization therapies. Standard ethical constraints apply. However, informed consent is hindered by tight time windows for reperfusion therapy and frequent cognitive impairment in patients. These might be mitigated by using visual de...

C1QC, VSIG4, and CFD as Potential Peripheral Blood Biomarkers in Atrial Fibrillation-Related Cardioembolic Stroke
Oxid Med Cell Longev. 2023 Jan 5;2023:5199810. doi: 10.1155/2023/5199810. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTAtrial fibrillation (AF) is a major risk factor for ischemic stroke. We aimed to identify novel potential biomarkers with diagnostic value in patients with atrial fibrillation-related cardioembolic stroke (AF-CE).Publicly available gene expression profiles related to AF, cardioembolic stroke (CE), and large artery atherosclerosis (LAA) were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified and then functionally annotated. The support vector machine recursive feature elimi...

Abstract 215: Differing Perspectives Between Physicians, Patients And Caregivers On The Value Of An Individualized Estimate Of The Benefits Of Thrombolysis At The Time Of Acute Ischemic Stroke: Designing The Resolve (Rapid Evaluation for Stroke Outcomes using Lytics in Vascular Event) Decision Aid Poster Session II
Conclusions: Preliminary findings suggest reluctance by emergency physicians to share data about the benefits of rt-PA to stroke patients and their caregivers, despite the desire of the latter for such information. While the additional planned interviews will be needed to confirm these findings, preliminary insights suggest a compelling need to overcome the reticence of emergency physicians to use clinical data to better engage patients in making a shared decision about rt-PA in AIS.

Abstract 219: What factors influence the decision to refer patients to a stroke center in an Emergency Medical Service Dispatch Center? Poster Session II
Conclusion: in our study 26% of callers were referred to a SC, age and delay influenced this decision. Enforced implementation of recent recommendations and standard training in stroke recognition will improve EMS pathways to SC.

Abstract 265: TeleStroke: Expanding Access and Coordination of Care from Acute Stroke to Follow-up Session Title: Poster Session II
The objective of this study was to develop a novel pathway for follow-up care after inpatient admissions for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) utilizing the existing telestroke infrastructure, with the goals of improving quality outcomes, reducing patient costs, and increasing access to care.Methods: Utilizing LEAN methodology, the existing care model was process-mapped to assess for potential areas of improvement. Over one month in 2013, a convenience sample of 27 inpatients admitted with AIS were surveyed to assess for potential barriers associated with travel to appointments, as well as for attitudes towards utilizing tele-he...
