Reducing Treatment Times for Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke through Case Review Feedback Forms

Overview

About this study

For stroke, interval times, such as door-to-imaging (DTI), door-to-needle (DTN), door-to-groin puncture (DTG), and door-to-reperfusion (DTR) times, are used to evaluate workflow efficiency. We hypothesize that by introducing case review feedback forms for each treated stroke case at our institution, individual members of the stroke team will develop a better estimation of their personal treatment times, and this will lead to an overall reduction in interval times after one year.
