Book Chapter
Teleneurology and Neurointerventional Therapy for Acute Stroke
2015
Overview
Teleneurology has expanded the availability of acute stroke treatment, particularly thrombolysis, as well as increased the availability of neurointerventional therapies to patients beyond large medical centers (El Khoury, Neurology 79(13 Suppl 1):S26–34, 2012). By promoting the appropriate triage of acute stroke patients, teleneurology helps facilitate the appropriate transfer of patients to appropriate centers to receive intra-arterial therapy for a variety of disorders, including acute ischemic stroke and subarachnoid hemorrhage. The objective of this chapter is to outline the workings of one large telestroke network, illustrating how teleneurology helps triage patients requiring neurointerventional therapy and facilitates the transfer of such patients for definitive treatment. The role of teleneurology in research and development of neurointerventional therapy is also discussed.
