19 Target: Stroke Target: Stroke is a national quality improvement campaign of the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association designed to improve outcomes for ischemic stroke patients by helping hospitals achieve door-to-needle (DTN) times of 60 minutes or less. By participating in Target: Stroke, hospital teams can work towards eliminating delays in treating stroke patients, with the ultimate goal of improving clinical outcomes. 3/5/ , American Heart Association 19

22 Association of DTN Time 60 Minutes with in-hospital Clinical Outcomes in GWTG-Stroke 25,504 acute ischemic stroke patients treated with tpa within 3 hrs of symptom onset at 1082 hospital sites. After adjustment, DTN times 60 minutes was associated with 22% lower odds of in-hospital mortality, adjusted OR, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.69 to 0.90; P= Lower rates of sich and any tpa complications * Variables included in multivariable GEE models were age, sex, race, prior medical history of AF, stroke/tia, CHD/MI, carotid stenosis, diabetes, PVD, hypertension, dyslipidemia, smoking, NIHSS (continuous), arrival mode (EMS vs other), arrival time on hours, hospital characteristics of geographic region, academic, PSC, bed size, annual number of strokes, annual number of tpa patients.

26 Target: Stroke Primary Goal Achieve a Door to Needle (DTN) Time within 60 minutes in at least 50% of ischemic stroke patients treated with IV tpa Fonarow GC et al Stroke. 2011;42:

27 Target: Stroke All The Necessary Components For timely, but safe and effective, acute ischemic stroke care, the following components are necessary: early identification of a candidate for thrombolysis activation of a stroke team evidence-based, readily assessable, effective protocols rapid ordering, acquisition, and interpretation of brain imaging accurate and rapid physician orders reliable intravenous tpa treatment administration coordinated patient monitoring ongoing assessment accurate time logs for tracking and timely data feedback Fonarow GC et al Stroke. 2011;42:

28 Target: Stroke 10 Key Best Practice Strategies 1. Hospital pre-notification by Emergency Medical Services 2. Rapid triage protocol and stroke team notification 3. Single call/paging activation system for entire stroke team 4. Use of a stroke toolkit containing clinical decision support, strokespecific order sets, guidelines, hospital-specific algorithms, critical pathways, NIH Stroke Scale and other stroke tools 5. Rapid acquisition and interpretation of brain imaging 6. Rapid Laboratory Testing (including point-of-care testing) if indicated 7. Pre-mixing tpa medication ahead of time for high likelihood candidates 8. Rapid access to intravenous tpa in the ED/brain imaging area 9. Team-based approach 10. Rapid data feedback to stroke team on each patient s DTN time and other performance data Fonarow GC et al Stroke. 2011;42:

29 Target: Stroke Honor Roll Criteria To be eligible for the Target: Stroke Honor Roll Award a hospital must: Be registered in Target: Stroke Be participating in GWTG-Stoke Currently hold Gold, Silver or Bronze Performance Achievement status in GWTG-Stroke Have DTN times within 60 minutes for at least 50% of applicable patients (minimum of 6 patients) for at least one calendar quarter

41 A TREAT FOR THE ELITE!

42 New Randomized Controlled Trials Task Force Observational registry data is the future of designing research trials efficiently and inexpensively. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are the gold standard of study designs. AHA has brought together a task force to guide the future of clinical trials within the Quality registries. 3/5/ , American Heart Association 42

43 Stroke Studies Launching NOW MaRISS ARAMIS PROSPER Expect exciting news this Spring as AHA begins study enrollment for these and others! 3/5/ , American Heart Association 43

44 Introducing: The MaRISS PROJECT Mild and Rapidly Improving Stroke Study 3/5/ , American Heart Association 44

45 MaRISS Background 795,000 annual strokes of which 85% are ischemic Mild & rapidly improving strokes (MaRISS) account for 31% to 46% of patients brought to hospital by EMS Only 10% of MaRISS patients are treated with reperfusion Rx, but MaRISS patients often don t have good outcomes In GWTG: 28.5% not independent at discharge 3 month outcomes for MaRISS patients have not been well studied The temporal profile of MaRISS is not well understood, and there is likely high variability in how these patients are classified 3/5/ , American Heart Association 45

46 MaRISS Specific Aims Overall goals: Elucidate long term outcomes of patients with Mild and Rapidly Improving Stroke Determine 90-day outcomes in MaRISS Evaluate reliability of automated patient reported outcomes (PRO) Define the predictors of poor outcome Compare safety and efficacy outcomes in those treated with IV rtpa vs. non-treated patients. 3/5/ , American Heart Association 46

47 MaRISS Interventions and Outcomes 2650 patients across 100 representative GWTG-S hospitals Primary outcome: % with a Modified Rankin Scale 0-1 at 90 days Secondary Outcomes: Barthel Index, Stroke Impact Scale and Euro-QOL at 90 days Outcomes assessed by telephone interview Subgroup will complete a web-based Patient Reported Outcome tool Site/coordinator responsibilities: Consent patient after tpa treatment decision Complete 2 extra NIHSS during hospitalization and record stroke etiology using TOAST criteria 30-day check-in telephone call 90-day telephone outcome 3/5/ , American Heart Association 47

48 MaRISS Timeline Hospital recruitment will begin mid 2014 Patient enrollment will begin late /5/ , American Heart Association 48

49 Can my Hospital can Participate in MaRISS? Study Site Requirements for Participation > 300 stroke discharges per year Ability to enroll patients over a 2 year study period High baseline completion rates of initial NIHSS in GWTG 3/5/ , American Heart Association 49
