About this app

COMPREHENSIVE CHAOS-FREE STROKE EVALUATION IN RECORD TIME!

The stroke simulator app trains you to do a rapid yet comprehensive evaluation of acute stroke, factors in all data pertinent for the 4.5 hr IV TPA window, the 6 hour endovascular window, the 6-16 hr DEFUSE3 endovascular window and the 6-24 hour DAWN endovascular window and walks you through the logical and actionable options. See sample output for a patient simulation.

THERE IS A LOT OF DATA TO CONSIDER BEFORE YOU MAKE YOUR DECISIONS

[LINK EACH OF THIS TO PAGE OF THIS NAME TO OPEN IN NEW TAB]
Exclusion criteria for 4.5 hr IV TPA
Exclusions for 6 hour endovascular window
Exclusions under the 6-16 hour DEFUSE 3 criteria
Exclusions under the 6-24 hour DAWN criteria

The truth of the matter is that much of this can get overlooked in an acute stroke situation. The objective of the stroke simulator is to make sure everything is factored into the decisions you make.

WHAT THE STROKE SIMULATOR DOES FOR YOU

Once you start up the STROKE SIM application, it enables rapid entry of clinical data , without fumbling around with google and stacks of paper and clumsy clunky EMRs . NIHSS documentation and scoring is in record time, test it out. ASPECTS scoring is a thing of beauty on the STROKE SIM, you are presented with a clickable brain image that rapidly calculates the score without holding up things. Inclusion and Exclusion criteria force you to review every point that MUST be reviewed, without glossing over or missing things or assuming things that should not be assumed. CT, CTA, CT perfusion studies, Labs, Modified Ranklin, current expectancy of life, everything that matters is factored in, without wasting time or holding you up. There are things that can be answered 'not done' and critical things that must be done that you cannot get past.


THE EDUCATIONAL VALUE OF STROKE SIMULATOR:

If criteria are not met, it states clearly the logic and rationale of WHY CRITERIA HAVE NOT BEEN MET and again it addresseses the 4.5 hr IV TPA window, the 6 hour endovascular window, the 6-16 hour endovascular window and the 6-24 hour endovascular window.
