In-hospital stroke

The Lancet Neurology, 2003
Between 6.5% and 15.0% of all strokes occur in patients already in hospital, many of whom are there for surgical procedures or cardiac disorders. This important group of patients could potentially be assessed more rapidly than others and could be candidates for interventional therapies. However, delays in recognition and assessment are common, possibly

Day hospital and stroke patients

International Disability Studies, 1989
Geriatric day hospitals are commonly used in the rehabilitation of stroke. However, there is little objective evidence about its effect for this condition. The potential advantages and disadvantages are finely balanced and further research, including cost-effectiveness analysis, is needed to define more clearly the role of this expensive facility.

In-Hospital Stroke

2018
The term “in-hospital stroke” (also referred to as “inpatient stroke”) describes acute stroke occurring while a patient is already in the hospital for another diagnosis. Research data on in-hospital strokes is limited in comparison to community-onset strokes that present through the Emergency Department (ED).

Hospital Charges for Stroke Patients

Relationship of Hospitalized Stroke Rate and In-Hospital Mortality to the Decline in US Stroke Mortality

Neuroepidemiology, 1991
Data from the National Hospital Discharge Survey was used to estimate the admission rate and in-hospital mortality for US stroke patients from 1970 to 1987. Over this period the hospital admission rate increased from 5.0 per 1,000 population to 5.5 per 1,000, while the in-hospital mortality fell from 18.6 to 10.0% of discharges.

Code stroke: Multicenter experience with in‐hospital stroke alerts

Journal of Hospital Medicine, 2014
Between 2.2% and 17% of all strokes have symptom onset during hospitalization in a patient originally admitted for another diagnosis or procedure. A response system to rapidly evaluate inpatients with acute neurologic symptoms facilitates evaluation and treatment of stroke developing during hospitalization.

Effect of a stroke protocol on hospital costs of stroke patients

Neurology, 1994
To determine the impact of a protocol on hospitalization costs for patients admitted with stroke.Nonrandomized control trial in an urban community hospital with 376 beds.All patients admitted with a diagnosis-related group code of 014 (cerebrovascular disease) were included (N = 390).

Pre‐ and in‐hospital intersection of stroke care

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2012
Acute ischemic stroke is a time‐critical emergency for which thrombolytic therapy is the only medical treatment. Many patients who would benefit from this treatment are deprived of it due to delays. Failure to call for help rapidly is the main obstacle, but even when the call is made in time, the prehospital evaluation, transportation, and emergency ...

Hospital size, remoteness and stroke outcome

QJM: An International Journal of Medicine, 2022
Summary Introduction Previous studies have shown an association between number of stroke admissions and outcomes. Small hospitals often support more remote areas and we studied national data to determine if an association exists between hospital remoteness and stroke care.

Comparing Hospitals on Stroke Care

JAMA, 2012
STROKE IS A LEADING CAUSE OF MORBIDITY AND MORtality in the United States and worldwide and is associated with enormous health care expenditures. Approximately 800 000 new or recurrent strokes occur annually in the United States, and of these, about 87% are ischemic cerebral infarctions.
