Telestroke: An Overview March 2013

2 What is telestroke? Telestroke is an emergency telemedicine application It allows for the assessment & treatment of patients experiencing acute ischemic stroke via a consult with a remote neurologist. Referring telestroke sites are those that don’t have an on-site neurologist but do have a CT scanner, telemedicine network infrastructure, telemedicine equipment and protocols. Consulting sites are where participating neurologists can review the results of a patient’s CT scan electronically & “see” a patient at a remote site using live video.

3 Statistics Telestroke began in North Bay in 2002 Between July 2002 and February 2013, 2998 consults were provided to Ontario stroke patients by telestroke physicians Over 900 patients have received tPA (~30%) as a result of a telestroke consult Averaging 50 telestroke calls/month with 21 referring sites

4 Who is currently involved? 21 referring sites Ajax, Barrie, Belleville, Brantford, Cornwell, Dryden, Fort Frances, Goderich, Hawkesbury, Kenora, New Liskeard, Niagara, North Bay, Oshawa, Pembroke, Peterborough, Sault Ste. Marie, Scarborough, Sioux Lookout, Sudbury, Timmins, 11 DSCs & 10 non-DSCs 10 provincial consulting neurologists Toronto, Ottawa, Huntsville, Hamilton

5 The telestroke program… provides a 24/7 emergency service that receives 24/7 technical support from OTN for telemedicine equipment; uses CritiCall to contact a telestroke neurologist using a single on-call system; provides equipment and supports neurologists in their homes for 24/7 coverage; supports discussions between referring and consulting physicians regarding the delivery of tPA; makes CT imaging available to the neurologist; and provides access to neurologists for 24-hour follow- up, if required.
