A better outlook for stroke patients starts today with connected stroke patient management solutions

Teaming up to improve lives for stroke patients

Effective stroke management connects the dots between caregivers at critical moments in stroke care pathways. We're with you, focused on making a life-saving difference for your patients.

Improving access to stroke care

Improving access to stroke care

Pioneering treatments are making a huge difference to the lives of stroke patients – but not everyone has access to them. That’s why we’re working tirelessly with leading experts, clinicians, and governments to bring life-saving care to more people, in more places, around the world.

Why collaboration matters in stroke care

Saving more patients from the devastating effects of stroke depends on getting them to the operating room quickly. We help you to speed up stroke care collaboration by solving critical bottlenecks in the care pathway, to ensure that your patients get treated faster and have a better chance of returning to their normal life.

    Overcoming the barriers we see in stroke management, together


    Complexity holds back speed in stroke patient management. A network of separate yet highly interdependent workflows must work fluidly together. Gaps in information, communication and access to stroke expertise can cause delays that have tragic consequences for stroke patients. Our innovations are designed to support better teamwork and collaboration, providing the information and tools that help you deliver time-sensitive, life-saving care.

    Diagnosis

    Support faster time to treatment

    Diagnosing a stroke takes experience and time, but it is only the start. Activating the stroke team for appropriate therapy is the crucial next step. Our solutions focus on sharing data across stroke caregivers and improving workflow efficiency to help you get stroke patients to treatment on time.

    Improve treatment outcomes

    Most strokes occur early in the morning or late at night.1,2 To make things easier for care teams, day and night, the Azurion Neuro suite starts up fast, simplifies workflow and provides 3D imaging guidance.

    We are pioneering Direct to Angio Suite (DTAS) workflows to drastically reduce time to treatment and improve outcomes

    Discover the potential of DTAS workflows


    Despite a broader window of eligibility for mechanical thrombectomy, one third of stroke patients still become ineligible due to time lost.3

    We are pioneering Direct to Angio Suite (DTAS) workflows to
    drastically reduce stroke treatment time and improve
    outcomes for these patients. Follow our progress during the
    WE-TRUST clinical trial.

    Together we are making a difference in stroke patient management

    "The value for the patient is created across the full cycle of care – from their prehospital experience, throughout their time in the hospital, as they are teed-up for discharge, and during their recovery period at home.”
