C3FIT, a 23-hospital post-discharge trial studying a 12-month intervention after a stroke, was a PCORI-funded pragmatic, comparative effectiveness trial designed to compare an “integrated stroke practice unit” (ISPU) model of care to usual stroke care over 12-months post-discharge. C3FIT primary and secondary outcomes were presented at the 2025 ISC Conference in a Late Breaking Science Main Session.
The 2025 International Stroke Conference (ISC) showcased new science and global best practices in stroke care. While several late-breaking trials showed no benefit, such findings still advance science and may already influence patient outcomes and practice. Here, we summarize key trials to help you review published data or track upcoming publications.
We are well into 2025 and deep into winter in the Northern Hemisphere. In the spirit of a year in review, we thought it might be helpful to overview the key Clinical Practice Guidelines and Scientific Statements from 2024. Did you miss any of these publications?
We explore the national statistics around the nursing shortage and talk about ideas to engage new nursing staff in stroke program initiatives.
Understanding the social drivers of health (SDoH) and health-related social needs (HRSN) is critical to creating equitable care for patients.
It might seem like a huge leap for programs operating in non-academic environments to meet the requirement for patient-centered research when seeking a Comprehensive Stroke Center designation. But we’ve seen many programs successfully navigate this challenge.
As stroke program leadership ponder taking a Primary Stroke Center (PSC) to Comprehensive Stroke Center (CSC) status, one of the more common challenges is how to scale a stroke research program to meet the research standard. Today, we offer suggestions for scaling and sustaining a stroke research program and successfully navigate CSC certification.
A new reality is upon us! Hospitals are experiencing unprecedented challenges in maintaining operations at a profitable level. What can you do, as a stroke program leader, to help mitigate financial worries of your organization and support the hospital and/or system’s 2023 strategic priorities?
Keeping up with key stroke program resources.
Has your program taken the appropriate steps to review new guidelines and update your order sets, guidelines and/or clinical pathways to reflect the changes?
