Newswise PHILADELPHIA - Stroke researchers from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania will unveil a map demonstrating geographic hotspots of increased stroke mortality across the United States, among a series of stroke studies being presented at the American Academy of Neurologys 66th Annual Meeting in Philadelphia, April 26 to May 3, 2014.

Hot and Cold: Stroke Mortality Varies Widely, Even in Neighboring Counties Clusters of hot spots - counties where the mortality rate from stroke was as much as 40 percent higher than the national average and 1.5 times higher than mortality of patients in cool spots - were found in the southeastern United States, but extended farther west and north than the traditionally defined stroke belt. In addition, researchers found isolated areas of low stroke mortality clustered within hot spots and isolated areas of high stroke mortality clustered within cool spots. Researchers hope to identify hot-spots that would benefit from targeted interventions to increase access to optimal stroke care, while accounting for population density, demographics, and existing healthcare resources.

Catherine Wolff and Michael Mullen, MD, assistant professor of Neurology, will present [P5.009] Geography of Stroke Mortality: Hotspotting Areas for Targeted Interventions on Wednesday, April 30, 2014 at 3:00 p.m., during P5: Poster Discussion: Cerebrovascular Disease and Interventional Neurology II from 3:00 pm - 6:30 pm in Hall E. The study was supported by NIH's Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality's (AHRQ) (grant R01 HS018362).

Women Less Likely To Receive Stroke-Busting rt-PA In a second study examining at stroke treatment disparities, researchers identified that women are less likely to receive clot-busting recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) than men at both Primary Stroke Centers and non-Primary Stroke Centers, although the absolute difference was small. Prior studies have suggested that women receive lower quality stroke care, are less likely to receive acute stroke therapies, and are more likely to be disabled after stroke then men. Further research can investigate any differences in rt-PA eligibility, stroke severity, or time to presentation by sex.

Dr. Mullen will present [P2.133] Gender Differences in Primary Stroke Center Evaluation and Utilization of rt-PA on Wednesday, April 30, 2014 at 3:00 p.m., during P5: Poster Discussion: Cerebrovascular Disease and Interventional Neurology II from 3:00 pm - 6:30 pm in Hall E. The study was supported by NIH's Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality's (AHRQ) (grant R01 HS018362).

New App Optimizes Acute Stroke Care A third Penn stroke study, by Claude Nguyen, MD, assistant professor of Clinical Neurology, describes a new smartphone app Dr. Nguyen developed to triage stroke patients more effectively. The app was designed to assist practitioners perform multiple tasks simultaneously, to diagnose, treat, and even enroll patients into appropriate clinical trials. Compatible with iOS and Android devices, the app assists with tracking important times, such as symptom onset, arrival time at hospital, diagnostic image acquisition, rt-PA administration, and more. It also has speed dial directory for important collaborators, references and clinical trial eligibility screening capabilities.

Nguyen first formed the idea for the app as a stroke fellow at the University of Texas (UT) Health Science Center at Houston, brainstorming ways to utilize his passion in technology to improve stroke care. He wrote the app on the side, building features to help with quality improvement, ease communication, and screen for clinical trials. The app is now being used by physicians, nurses, and research support staff at UT.

Dr. Nguyen will present [P7.125] A Smartphone Application To Aid In The Evaluation, Treatment, And Clinical Trial Enrollment Of The Acute Stroke Patient on Thursday, May 1, 2014 at 3:00 p.m. during P7: Poster Session VII: Cerebrovascular Disease and Interventional Neurology: Issues in Acute Stroke Treatment (3:00 PM-6:30 PM) in Hall E.

FAU medical school debuts residency program

Posted on by

Three South Florida hospitals for the first time will get dozens of new doctors in training, as Florida Atlantic University debuts its new physician residency program.

The 36 recent medical school graduates are expected to help ease a resident shortage and an anticipated physician shortage in the coming years, FAU officials said. About a quarter of Florida's physicians are over age 65, according to the Association of American Medical Colleges.

These young doctors, as well as their supervising faculty, will help transform three community hospitals Boca Raton Regional Medical Center, Delray Medical Center and Bethesda West near Boynton Beach into academic teaching hospitals.

"I think it's going to be an incredible benefit to the community to have well-trained physicians being developed from the community," said Dr. Bernardo Obeso, director of the FAU program. "They will learn the culture of the community and in the end will improve the quality of care and safety throughout the area."

In addition to serving hospital patients, the residents will provide primary care at two new FAU outpatient clinics that will be established at Boca Raton Regional and Bethesda West. They'll also conduct wellness programs within the community, Obeso said.

Even though the physicians will all be based in Palm Beach County, Broward County is likely to benefit as well.

"Most people live and work throughout the area. Nobody limits themselves these days to one or two zip codes," said Linda Quick, president of the South Florida Hospital & Healthcare Association.

The students will arrive June 23 for training and start work July 1. While they come from all over the world, 39 percent have Florida roots, officials said.

The residency program is the second major part of the FAU College of Medicine's physician education program. The medical school opened in 2011 with 64 students. Those students won't be eligible to be residents until they graduate next year.

Its first class of 64 students won't graduate until 2015, so they weren't eligible.

Medical examiner rules Connecticut high school student died of stab wounds to neck, torso

Posted on by

HARTFORD, Conn. The Connecticut chief medical examiner says the 16-year-old girl fatally stabbed in a hallway of her high school died of wounds to her torso and neck.

The medical examiner's office said Sunday that Maren Sanchez's death was a homicide.

A 16-year-old classmate is charged with murder as a juvenile in Friday's stabbing at Jonathan Law High School in Milford.

Police didn't release the suspect's name, but people who saw him taken into custody identified him as Sanchez's friend Chris Plaskon.

Police are investigating whether Sanchez was killed because she turned down an invitation to be Plaskon's date to prom.

Plaskon's attorney says he is being held in a hospital under psychiatric evaluation. His arraignment is scheduled for Monday, but his lawyer says the boy won't attend.
