Senator Bobby L. Glover, joined by representatives from the Heart Association, the Arkansas Hospital Association, UAMS’ Center for Distance Health, SAVES Tele-Stroke Program, ADH officials and some of the forty-one Arkansas hospitals who have joined the Arkansas Stroke Registry since April 2011.
The Arkansas Stroke Registry is a database built on information from participating hospitals such as patient emergency transport, diagnosis and treatment data. The Registry uses the American Heart Association’s Get With The Guidelines® program to analyze and identify opportunities to assist hospitals in improving patient care while reducing stroke deaths and disability. In addition, data received from the Arkansas Stroke Registry will increase public awareness of stroke warning signs and symptoms as well as the importance of calling 9-1-1.
