Telestroke

Telestroke is an audiovisual communication network that allows for coordination of stroke care from a distant 'hub' site (the telestroke provider location) to an originating 'spoke' site (patient location) in a HIPAA compliant fashion. In TELECAST, inpatient telestroke rounding will be used to oversee the urgent diagnostic stroke evaluation, secondary stroke prevention, health screening \& evaluation, and stroke education in patients admitted with stroke.
