Perspective

Acute Stroke Care
• Rapid, accurate
assessment
• Imaging protocols
• Guideline based order
sets, protocols, and
pathways
• Quality and outcome
monitoring
Source: JAMA, 2000;283:3102-3109 Recommendations for the Establishment of Primary Stroke Centers
s
DSC/Stroke-4: Tissue Plasminogen
Activator (t-PA) Considered
Measure: All patients who present at a
hospital with symptoms of an ischemic
stroke with symptom onset of 3 hours or
less should be considered to receive
intravenous (IV) t-PA
Rationale: The administration of
thrombolytic agents to carefully screened,
eligible patients with acute ischemic stroke
has been shown to be beneficial in some
recent clinical trials. IV t-PA is the only
FDA approved treatment for acute
ischemic stroke.
s
Acute Stroke Evaluation:
60 Minute or Less Protocol
• Triage – 10 minutes: Patient compliant, focused history,
vital signs, GCS, ECG
• ED Physician – 10 to 20 minutes: Focused history and
physical exam, laboratories, CT Scan-codes stroke
(Goal: 25 minute door-to-CT)
– Vital sign monitoring, neurologic checks, seizure and aspiration
precautions
• Neurology Consult – 20-30 minutes: Review history,
physical exam, review CT Scan
• Treatment Decisions
s
Time is Brain
=
Stroke Onset to
IV TPA < 3 hours
Door to IV TPA Goal < 60 Minutes
• STARS Registry
– 38 community, 18 academic hospitals, 389 IV TPA pts
– Median door to needle time: 96 minutes
• CDC 4 State Pilot Acute Stroke Registry
– 98 hospitals, 6867 acute patients, 118 IV TPA
– Treatment within target 60 minutes: 14.4%

Strategies in Acute Ischemic Stroke
• Proven
– Supportive Care:
–
–
–
–
Treat hypoxia
Maintain normothermia
Avoid hyperglycemia
Early parental fluids and permissive hypertension
– Recanalization (Thrombolytics < 3 hours)
– Prevent Clot Propagation
– Early Implementation of Secondary Prevention
s
NIH/NINDS tPA study
Design
Randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled trial
Raters different from baseline examiners
Two parts
Part 1: 24-hour improvement
• Complete resolution of deficit or improvement of 4 points on the
NIH stroke scale
Part 2: 3-month outcome
• Consistent and persuasive difference in proportion of patients with
minimal or no deficit
s
Eligibility Criteria
• Ischemic stroke with clearly defined
time of onset < 3 hours
• Baseline CT negative for hemorrhage
• Age > 18 years
• Moderate to severe symptoms
s
Treatment
Dose
0.9 mg/kg (maximum 90 mg)
10% given as IV bolus
90% constant IV infusion over over 1 hr
Other meds No other anticoagulants or antiplatelet
agents for 24 hours post tPA
Strict BP control (< 180/105 mmHg)
post-tPA
s
Thrombolytic Therapy Checklist
• >18 y.o. with ischemic stroke < 3 hours
• Moderate or severe symptoms
• Coagulation status
– If patient has received recent anticoagulation therapy: PT
< 15 sec. and normal PTT
– Platelets > 100,000
• Blood Pressure SBP<185mmHg, DBP <110
• Glucose > 50 mg/dl
Adams HP, et al. ASA Stroke Council. Stroke. 2003;34:1056-1083.
s
Other exclusion criteria
• Prior stroke or head trauma
within 3 months
• Rapidly improving or mild
symptoms
• Major surgery within 14 days
• Seizure at stroke onset
• History of ICH or SAH
• SBP > 185 or DBP > 110
• GI or GU hemorrhage within
21 days
• Glucose <50 or >400 mg/dL
• Arterial puncture at noncompressible site within 7 days
• Elevated PT > 15s or PTT >
1.5x normal
• Lumbar puncture within 7
days

Use of tPA in Routine Clinical Practice
• Efficacy similar to NINDS trial
• Rate of ICH: 4%-6%
• Risk of ICH increases with protocol violations

Time >3 hours
Poor blood pressure control
Using prohibited agents
Wrong dose
• 0.9 mg/kg
• Maximum dose: 90 mg
– Elevated blood sugar also increases risk
Adams HP, et al. ASA Stroke Council. Stroke. 2003;34:1056-1083.
s
• Only 1.8-2.4% of stroke patients review IV tPA
• Reasons for exclusions
– Delayed patient arrival (>3 hrs)
– In-hospital delays in completion of required tests prior
to rt-PA administration
– Presence of exclusion criteria
– Physician reluctance to administer the drug due to
inexperience, unavailability of neurological
consultation, or fear of medical complications or legal
ramifications
s
#1 Reason for IV TPA exclusion:
Delay to ER
73%
Only 27% of those presenting within 3 hours
were treated with IV TPA
Of those presenting <3 hours (n=314):
1. Rapid improvement
2. Mild symptoms
3. Protocol exclusion
4. Delay in ER
5. Comorbidity

Acute Stroke Pager
NOTICE: CHANGE IN THE
NEUROLOGY PAGER*
85-7800 is the new pager for Neurology
Use this pager to reach neurology for
consults (routine and urgent), for
questions to neurology, etc…
85-4500 is now the Acute Stroke Pager
Use this pager for suspected acute
stroke (i.e. stroke onset < 12 hours)
Use of this pager will activate the acute
stroke team
*These changes will be effective on January 2, 2007
RUMC ALGORITHM ACUTE STROKE (ED)
