The Stroke Unit of the Future: From Emergency Department to Home - SKSI 2022 Conference

Explore a panel discussion from the 2022 Recovery after Stroke conference, focusing on the future of stroke care from emergency department to home. Learn about innovative approaches to improve stroke recovery outcomes, including early intervention strategies, enhanced therapy models, and environmental modifications. Discover how researchers are investigating the impact of communal eating, music therapy, and digital therapeutics on patient recovery. Gain insights into extending stroke unit care to patients' homes through transition clinics and mobile applications. Understand the latest advancements in conceptualizing stroke recovery, predicting hospital stays, and monitoring physiological responses to various interventions.

Syllabus

Intro
Conceptualizing Stroke Recovery Vision: To improve the life of every stroke patient
Early recovery: Brain Repair
Our strategy: Early Recovery Period
I. Do we have the time for recovery activity in the hospitar Can we fit recovery into the standard stroke unit?
Predicting Length of Hospital Stay
Enhanced Stroke Therapy Model Can we improve outcomes with earlier therapy?
III. Can patients tolerate early activity? Tracking Physiological Parameters
Physiological Responses to Cycle Ergometer
Upper Extremity Cycling & Physiological Response
IV. Enhancing the Environment Can the space encourage healing?
Communal Eating Program Can reducing isolation after Stroke improve outcomes
Music Can music improve post stroke hypertension
Digital Therapeutics Can we increase hospital activity using prescribed gaming
V. Can we extend the Stroke Unit to Patient's Home? JSTTEP: Post Hospital Transition Clinic
Stroke Recovery App Can we reinforce education & measure recovery with an app
