CT interpretation in a telestroke network: agreement among a spoke radiologist, hub vascular neurologist, and hub neuroradiologist.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The American Stroke Association guidelines emphasized the need for further high-quality studies that assess agreement by radiologists and nonradiologists engaged in emergency telestroke assessments and decision-making. Therefore, the objective of this study was to determine the level of agreement of baseline brain CT scan interpretations of patients with acute stroke pres...
متن کاملCost-effectiveness of hub-and-spoke telestroke networks for the management of acute ischemic stroke from the hospitals' perspectives.
BACKGROUND A hub-and-spoke telestroke network is an effective way to extend quality acute stroke care to remote hospitals and to improve patient outcomes. This study assessed the cost-effectiveness of a telestroke network in the management of acute ischemic stroke from the perspectives of a network, a hub hospital, and a spoke hospital. METHODS AND RESULTS A model was developed to compare cos...
متن کاملA Hybrid Solution Method for Hub-and-Spoke Network Design under Uncertainty
Supply chain is an integrated system of facilities and activities. Gaining the optimum design of demand satisfaction network is one of the most important live issues in the decision making problems category. Most of previous studies considered unreal assumptions such as the lack of capacity constraints to satisfy demand in the network and in hubs. By considering the nature of the case that have...
متن کاملOutcomes of Spoke-Retained Telestroke Patients Versus Hub-Treated Patients After Intravenous Thrombolysis: Telestroke Patient Outcomes After Thrombolysis.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The outcomes of patients remaining at a community spoke hospital after tissue-type plasminogen activator treatment via telemedicine are unclear. Our aim was to compare medical outcomes between these patients and those treated at a hub stroke center. METHODS We retrospectively examined patient medical records from 2006 to 2014 of 272 consecutive patients treated with int...
متن کاملCost utility of hub-and-spoke telestroke networks from societal perspective.
BACKGROUND A hub-and-spoke telestroke network is an effective way to extend quality emergency stroke care to remote hospitals and improve patient outcomes. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the cost utility of a telestroke network in the management of acute ischemic stroke from the societal perspective. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS A lifetime Markov model was developed to compare the incremental costs and...
