Abstract:
Objective To discuss the impacts of stroke center construction upon therapeutic indexes for di-agnosing and treating patients with acute ischemic stroke. Methods Patients were divided into a control group (180 patients)and a formal group(245 patients)based on the time of stroke center construction.Patients in both groups were recorded time points in the course of diagnosis and treatment,and compared in number of cases with intravenous thrombolysis,number of cases receiving intravascular interventional therapies,DTN(door-to-needle) time,number of deaths,National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)scores upon grouping,NIHSS scores after four weeks,NIHSS scores after 3 months,days of hospital stay and hospital charges.Results After the con-struction of the stroke center,time spent in different links were decreased.The number of cases with pure intrave-nous thrombolysis and DTN time(shorter than 60 min)were increased,and the difference were statistically signifi-cant(P<0.01).The number of cases who only received intravascular interventional therapies is increased,mean-while,DTN time was decreased,NIHSS scores after 4 weeks was increased and NIHSS scores after 3 months were also increased(P < 0.05)in these cases. No statistically significant differences existed in number of cases who were treated by bridging with intravenous thrombolysis in combination with intravascular interventional therapies and death cases(P=0.153,P=0.247).There were no statistically significant differences in days of hospital stay and hospital charges(P=0.152,P=0.406).Conclusions After the stroke center construction,it is helpful for significantly improving medical institutions′diagnosis and treatment of stroke,reducing time of such diagnosis and treatment in different links,shortening DTN time,increasing thrombolysis rate,improving patients′prognosis and bringing more benefits to patients with acute ischemic stroke by optimizing procedures for diagnosing and treating stroke.
