Patients with vascular disease face increased stroke risk, especially during cardiovascular events. Prompt identification and management, aided by specialized teams like the Stroke Watch Action Team (SWAT), are crucial for effective stroke treatment.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Cardiology
  • Vascular Medicine

Background:

  • Patients with existing vascular disease in one system exhibit heightened risk for developing vascular disease in other systems.
  • Cardiovascular patients are increasingly recognized as having an elevated risk for stroke, not solely due to arrhythmia, but also during cardiovascular events or procedures.

Observation:

  • The co-occurrence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease presents significant clinical challenges for healthcare professionals.
  • Nurses require enhanced awareness, critical thinking skills, and interdisciplinary collaboration to manage these complex patient presentations.
  • Case studies reveal a spectrum of stroke presentations in cardiovascular patients, from subtle to overt.

Findings:

  • Review of stroke pathophysiology provides foundational understanding for clinical management.

  • Leading-edge management strategies and literature underscore the importance of timely stroke patient identification and intervention.
  • The Stroke Watch Action Team (SWAT) model demonstrates efficacy in accelerating patient identification and access to stroke treatment.

    • Implications:

    • Interdisciplinary collaboration and specialized training are essential for optimizing care for patients with comorbid vascular conditions.
    • Implementing structured protocols, such as the SWAT program, can significantly improve stroke outcomes.
    • This work highlights the critical need for integrated care approaches addressing both cardiovascular and neurological health.
