Telehealth offers remote medical services, bringing enhanced healthcare to remote areas and immediate access to emergency care when the time to treatment is critical.
Telestroke refers to a telehealth process that connects physicians specializing in neurological disorders and stroke with hospitals and medical facilities in another location. These specialized physicians work with a patient’s emergency medicine doctors to diagnose stroke and recommend treatment for more successful outcomes.

Stroke telemedicine connects an originating site where the patient is located to a distant site such as an urban medical center with stroke-ready training and protocols. A team of telestroke-trained caregivers work together at the distant site, relaying assessment and treatment to the medical personnel at the originating site.
Through digital video communication, internet-accessible electronic healthcare records, tablets and other mobile technologies, neurocritical care physicians can observe and communicate with patients in real-time. With the help of physicians and medical staff at the originating site, a diagnosis can be made and treatment administered immediately.
Knowing what type of stroke a patient is experiencing helps determine treatment and leads to better outcomes and recovery. The main types of stroke are ischemic, hemorrhagic and transient ischemic attack (TIA).
