Faster to rescue: The emergency services shorten the treatment!

Klinik für Innere Medizin II, Deutschland - A stroke can decide on life and death, and time plays a crucial role! Professor Dr. Michael Weber, the chief physician of the Clinic for Internal Medicine II, emphasizes the importance of the "Door to Needle" time-from the period from the patient to treatment. "We have had very good experiences with it because we see that we don't lose time," he explains. Speed is the a and o!

emergency services as a lifeguard

The key to rescue lies in the efficiency of the emergency services. "You can keep them short if the emergency services bring the patient directly to the CT," says Prof. Weber. This direct approach can save up to 10 to 15 minutes in a valuable time, which can be life -saving in the event of a stroke. Philip Koniordos, another expert, supports this statement and emphasizes how important it is to act quickly.

The quick reaction of the emergency services and the direct treatment in the hospital can make up the difference between serious consequences and a complete recovery. Every second counts in the world of strokes, and the medical specialists work tirelessly to keep the “Door to Needle” time as short as possible. A race against the time that decides on the life of patients!
