RESUMO

PURPOSE: There is a clinical need for shortened door-to-needle time (DNT) for intravenous thrombolysis, but effective training methods are missing. Simulation training improves teamwork and logistics in numerous fields. Still, it is not clear if simulation improves logistics in stroke. METHODS: To evaluate the efficiency of a simulation training programme, the DNT of participating centres was compared with the rest of stroke centres in the Czech Republic. Patients' data were prospectively collected from the nationally used Safe Implementation of Treatments in Stroke Registry. The outcome was an improvement in DNT in 2018 as compared with 2015 (after and before the simulation training). Scenarios were based on real clinical cases, and simulation courses were conducted in a standardly equipped simulation centre. FINDINGS: Between 2016 and 2017, 10 courses were conducted for stroke teams from 9 of all 45 stroke centres. DNT data were available both in 2015 and 2018 from 41 (91%) stroke centres. The simulation training improved the DNT in 2018 as compared with 2015 by 30 min (95% CI 25.7 to 34.7) and as compared with 20 min (95% CI 15.8 to 24.3) in stroke centres without the simulation training (p=0.01). Any parenchymal haemorrhage occurred in 5.4% and 3.5% of patients treated in centres without and with simulation training (p=0.054), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: DNT was considerably shortened nationally. It was feasible to implement simulation as a nationwide training programme. The simulation was associated with improved DNT; however, other studies should confirm that such an association is causal.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: Stroke predominantly affects the elderly. Universities of the Third Age (U3A) are presented with an opportunity to target them. The goal of our study was to improve older adults' preparedness to call 911 as a response to symptoms of stroke. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Participants were recruited from U3A in Brno, Czech Republic in year 2018. The program included an educational movie about stroke and testing with pretest posttest design. Stroke awareness was measured by Stroke Action Test and video-clips portraying stroke and stroke mimicking symptoms. Respondents had to answer close-ended questions. Composite scores were compared using paired t-test. RESULTS: Data were obtained from 206 attendees of the program, that is 2% of all students, from 4 of 5 U3A in Brno. The mean test score improved from 80% to 87% (paired p < 0.001). Participants with a lower baseline knowledge improved by 12% (95% CI 9% to 16%) and with a higher baseline knowledge by 0% (95% CI 3% to 4%). The score for calling 911 for stroke mimicking symptoms improved from 29% to 20% (paired p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Video-based educational program improved senior preparedness to call 911 as a response to stroke. The improvement was mild, which is at least partly due to a high baseline level of preparedness of seniors active in U3A. A lower baseline knowledge was however associated with a bigger improvement, which might be important for use in a less active/educated population. Educational intervention also decreased intention to call 911 for stroke mimicking symptoms, which could have important implications for decreasing unnecessary activation of pre-hospital services.
