Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Neurology
  • Emergency Medicine

Background:

  • Acute stroke management requires rapid risk stratification using the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS).
  • Human factors are critical limitations in improving door-to-needle (DTN) times for stroke treatment.
  • A combined traditional and simulation-based stroke course was developed to enhance knowledge and practical skills.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of a local stroke course in improving theoretical knowledge and practical skills for acute stroke assessment and management.
  • To enhance participants' understanding of thrombolysis and thrombectomy procedures.
  • To boost confidence in performing NIHSS scoring and overall stroke patient assessment.

Main Methods:

  • Twenty-four medical professionals (students and residents) participated in the course from November 2022 to July 2023.
  • Pre- and post-course questionnaires assessed understanding of thrombolysis/thrombectomy and confidence in NIHSS scoring and stroke assessment.
  • Quantitative and qualitative data were collected to evaluate course effectiveness.

Main Results:

  • Significant improvements (p<0.05) were observed in all four assessed domains: thrombolysis understanding, thrombectomy understanding, NIHSS scoring confidence, and stroke assessment confidence.
  • Mean score increases were 3.75 for thrombolysis (p=0.0003), 3.4 for thrombectomy (p=0.0002), 4.33 for NIHSS confidence (p<0.0001), and 2.75 for stroke assessment confidence (p=0.0012).
  • 95.8% of participants rated the course as good or excellent, and 91.7% would recommend it.

Conclusions:

  • Traditional and simulation-based training effectively enhances understanding of stroke treatments and confidence in critical assessment skills.
  • The developed stroke course successfully improved participants' ability to assess and manage acute stroke patients.
  • Further simulation training focusing on human factors could further optimize DTN times in acute stroke care.
