Telestroke 2: Prehospital Triage of Patients With Suspected Stroke Using Onsite Mobile Telemedicine

Prehospital Triage of Patients with Suspected Stroke Using Onsite Mobile Telemedicine approach (interactive video and audio streaming). In patients with suspected stroke, a prehospital patient evaluation by end-to-end encrypted real-time audio- and video streaming from the pre-hospital setting to an in-hospital stroke physician, located at the University hospital of Basel, is requested and initiated (telestroke-path). The process is supervised and evaluated by an in-hospital stroke physician in real-time. Patients considered having an acute stroke will be directly transferred to cerebral imaging via CT. All other patients will follow conventional stroke path.
