Sequential Process

Sources of Delays – LEAN Analysis

Delay in

arrival to

angio suite

4) Decision

to treat

3) MRI scan

• Discussion of benefit from IAT

• Patient transferred back to ED bay instead of

directly to angio suite

• Elective intubation in ED

• Consent for clinical trial only after MRI completed

• Difficulty in contacting healthcare proxy for consent

• Patient not transferred until nursing pass off

1) ED arrival

• No advance ED2CT page

• Lack of transport

equipment when patient

ready for scanner

• Patient unstable, requiring

intubation

2) CT scan

• Scanner occupied by different

patient

• No scan order in system

• Awaiting labs before giving

contrast or treating with IV tPA

• Difficult IV access

• Neuroradiology fellow not

available for rapid scan

interpretation

• Late notifcation to neuroIR team

despite high clinical suspicion

for vessel occlusion

• Scanner occupied by different patient

• No scan order in system

• MRI checklist not completed

• Lack of MRI-compatible EKG leads

• Needed to change equipment for

MRI scan

• Research fellow not present for

clinical trial consideration

• Awaiting renal function labs

• Patient movement during scan

• Neuroradiology fellow not available

for rapid scan interpretation

Memorial Stroke Redesign

Page 10: Rapid Reperfusion in Acute Stroke - Boca Raton Regional ...web.brrh.com/msl/South Florida Stroke Systems of Care Symposium … · Rapid Reperfusion in Acute Stroke The Memorial Healthcare

Major Goals

• Redesign IV tPA Work Flow

– Goal DTN consistently < 30 minutes

– Adopt ASA Target Stroke guidelines

• Revamp Endovascular Stroke Work Flow

– Goal Door-to-Reperfusion time < 90 minutes

– Run it as a Code Heart

– Parallel Activation of NeuroInterventional team

– Process map posted in ED, angio suite, inpatient units

– Track core metrics for continuous process improvement

10

Page 11: Rapid Reperfusion in Acute Stroke - Boca Raton Regional ...web.brrh.com/msl/South Florida Stroke Systems of Care Symposium … · Rapid Reperfusion in Acute Stroke The Memorial Healthcare

Reduce IV tPA Door‐to‐Needle Times

– Pre-hospital notification

– Stroke alert system - StatLinx

– Bypass ED bay, go straight to CT scanner

– Keep IV tPA in ER

– Pre-mix IV tPA

– Rapid CT interpretation

– Await labs only if concern for coagulopathy

– Administer tPA while in CT scanner

NITRO Parallel Workflow Neuro Interventional Thrombectomy Recanalize Occlusion

• Any patient with disabling deficits = Possible ELVO

• Goal Picture-to-Puncture <60 minutes

EMS stroke alert call NeuroInterventionlist BEFORE imaging

Dial *61 for ‘Brain Attack’ cath lab if gaze preference or global aphasia

Get brain attack CT/CTA head & neck (scan first, labs later)

Keep patient in holding area near scanner; do not return to ER

Rads will provide prelim read <5 min; call Dr Mehta if any delays

Update Neurologist / NeuroInterventionlist of scan results

Administer IV tPA bolus if patient eligible

Take patient immediately to cath lab neuro room #12

Goal to cath lab <10 min after scan completion

Do not wait for consent; thrombectomy a standard of care

Strategy for Data Transparency & Utilization

• Three-pronged strategy to promote data transparency

– Inform EMS medical directors of dashboards being

available starting end of q1 2019

– Letter from behalf of EMS Medical Directors to all

thrombectomy stroke centers requesting dashboards to

be shared with EMS

– Proactive stroke centers in each county to lead the way

with sharing of dashboards with EMS

Florida Stroke Legislation 2019

• Require all stroke centers in Florida to be certified by nationally

recognized organizations such as the Joint Commission by

2021

• List all nationally certified thrombectomy stroke centers on

AHCA website for improved EMS and public understanding

• Require all stroke centers to submit data to statewide stroke

registry

• Develop EMS pre-hospital stroke protocols with appropriate

scales and triage pathways PSC vs CSC
