Exceeding National Standards
Dive into the data to see how we surpass national stroke care standards.
Baptist Health and Lyerly Neurosurgery were honored with Systems of Care Recognition awards at the 2017 International Stroke Conference. The charts below show how we treat stroke patients more quickly compared to the other 54 sites in the STRATIS study and a previous landmark SWIFT PRIME study.
Among the treatments used to help prevent stroke in patients who are at high risk due to carotid stenosis, a narrowing of one of the major arteries in the neck, are carotid endarterectomy and carotid stent placement. Our excellent outcomes for these treatments are shown below.
