- The Canadian Agency for Drugs and Technologies in Health (CADTH) has published a systematic review on the use of telestroke, which they define as “the use of audio (including the telephone), video, and other telecommunications and electronic information processing technologies for the transmission of information and data relevant to the diagnosis and treatment of acute stroke”. Communication can occur between a patient and health care providers or among health care providers.
A systematic review of the literature (limited to publications in English) yielded 22 studies with original data on telestroke modalities assessing health outcomes, cost-effectiveness, patient and provider satisfaction, or process of care, published in a peer-review journal. An environmental scan identified 15 organizations (two in Canada) providing telestroke services.
From their findings, the authors conclude the following (taken from the website summary):
• Telestroke improves access to thrombolysis treatment, which may in turn reduce mortality and serious morbidity post-stroke. A high level of patient satisfaction has been documented with this service.
• Uncertainty remains regarding cost-effectiveness and safety. Conclusions regarding the economic impact and potential harm from telestroke services compared with face-to-face care could not be drawn from the available evidence.
• Opportunities for further understanding exist. The lack of standardized reporting of resources and outcomes precludes comparisons among programs and the determination of best practices.

For an earlier paper1 a set of shallow cold-cup biopsies was collected under very rigidly controlled conditions from patients who all experienced moderate to severe symptoms.
