TELESTROKE PROJECT
The Telestroke Project foresees the integrated management - among hospital doctors with a mobile workstation and the specialized doctors of a reference hospital central unit with a fixed workstation – of a patient with the specific symptoms of an ischemic stroke at any hospital of the Provincial healthcare network.
Objectives :
- Make remote treatment possible for patients even in peripheral hospitals, thanks to a neurological teleconsultation system
- Patients do not need to be moved
Methods :
- Neurological tele-consultation via videoconference (video Full HD, audio) among the different peripheral hospitals and the central reference hospital unit
- Desktop sharing of patient’s neurological scales, laboratory data, and CT scans
