Memorial Stroke Accolades
Memorial University Medical Center Awarded•Disease Specific Certification as a Primary Stroke Center by TJC
• Re-certified in February 2015
•Received American Heart Association/American Stroke Association’s Get With The Guidelines-Gold Plus Quality Achievement Award for 2012, 2013 and 2014.
• This award recognizes Memorial’s commitment and success in implementing a higher standard of stroke care by ensuring that stroke patients receive treatment according to nationally accepted standards and recommendations.
•Target:Stroke Honor Roll• Recognizes Memorial for treating at least 50 percent of eligible ischemic
stroke patients with tissue plasminogen activator, or tPA, within 60 minutes of arriving at the hospital (known as ‘door-to-needle’ time).
Stroke Facts
• Stroke is a “brain attack,” cutting off vital blood flow and oxygen to the brain
• Fifth leading cause of death (killing over 133,000 people each year) and the # 1 cause of serious, long-term adult disability
• Approximately 795,000 strokes occur each year• One occurring every 40 seconds & taking a life approximately every 4
minutes
• 87% Ischemic & 13% Hemorrhagic • MH: 76% Ischemic & 23% Hemorrhagic
• Two million brain cells die every minute during stroke• Women are TWICE as likely to die from stroke than breast cancer
annually
• Time Is Brain.

MUMC’s TeleStroke Program
• Web-based, telemedicine system• Combining real-time audio and video conferencing between hospitals• This allows the neurologist to evaluate the patient, perform a neurological
assessment, view the computed tomography (CT) scan, lab values, make a diagnosis and initiate treatment from virtually anywhere.
• “Go-Live” 2Q 2011• Bacon County Hospital Alma, GA (2011)• Jeff Davis Hospital Hazlehurst, GA (2011)• Meadows Regional Medical Center Vidalia, GA (2012)• Liberty Regional Medical Center Hinesville, GA (2014)• MH’s Emergency Department
• Partnership with Savannah Neurology Specialists• 9 local neurologists provide an on-site neurology Monday-Friday 7a-5p
• Provide 24/7 coverage to regional telestroke program
Tissue Plasminogen Activator (tPA)
• TPA is administered via IV and works by dissolving the clot and improving blood flow to the part of the brain being deprived. • Called: thrombolytic agent or a “clot buster”
• Only FDA approved drug treatment for acute ischemic stroke (1996)• Treatment window – 3 to 4.5 hours since onset of symptoms• If given promptly, 1 in 3 patients resolve symptoms or have major
improvement in stroke symptoms. • Risk: bleeding (hemorrhage) in brain or other parts of the body (6 out of
100 patients)
Emergency Department Acute Stroke Treatment: Code Stroke
MUMC 2014:
Median DTCT: 14 minutes
Median DTN: 54.5 minutes
Telestroke Transfers
• Spoke Sites• Administer TPA in ED
• Patient transferred to MUMC for higher level of care• Flight→ Transport after 1st set of 15 minute vitals & neuro check
complete- ED MD evaluates patient prior to transport
• Ground→ Transport after 1 hour infusion in complete
TPA Data: Age & Gender
Data: Outcome Science 2014
Median Age: Female: 66 Male: 57.5
Female: 41.9% Male: 58.1%
TPA Data: Diagnosis & Gender
Data: Outcome Science 2014
DTN <60 min: 61.9% of patients
TPA All Patients LOS: 4.94 days
TPA Data: Discharge Disposition
Data: Outcome Science 2014
MUMC: 4.2% Mortality & 1.8% post TPA Complications
