Stroke Code in Hospitals From Villavicencio, Colombia

This is a descriptive cross-sectional study to evaluate stroke events in a hospital in the Orinoco region. It is based on reviewing a database obtained by routinely uploading patient information. The registry is designed to follow up on the activation of a stroke code for clinical purposes and as an internal communication strategy. All registries are reviewed monthly in a scientific committee to improve quality of healthcare, standardize therapeutic strategies, and optimize outcomes. The review of the registries will allow to recognize patterns of care, delays in treatment, and define adherence to guidelines.

About this study

Background: Data banks or stroke registries are collected in several countries worldwide, generating information that improves patient healthcare quality.

Aim: The study aims to describe the stroke registry of patients admitted to a high-median-complexity institution.

Methodology: We wil perform a cross-sectional trial. Demographic and disease data, as well as discharge outcomes, are systematically collected in the RES-Q database. The records from the study period will be downloaded in Excel for evaluation. Numeric variables were assessed in their central distribution and dispersion, while categorical variables were presented in frequency and proportion.

Reports of stroke events in Latin America are scarce, and none were from the Colombian Orinoco region, even though there are multiple publications in the scientific literature about the use of clinical registries for stroke.
