Purpose
To inspect whether time management with radio frequency identification technology (RFID) reduces symptom onset-to-intravenous thrombolysis time (OTT) in acute ischemic stroke (AIS).
Methods
In the retrospective study, patients with AIS, transferred by Emergency Medical Services (EMS) to Hunan Provincial People’s Hospital between September 2019 to June 2022, divided into three groups, as traditional group, in-hospital RFID group and whole process RFID group. Baseline characteristics and time metrics were compared.
Results
After the whole emergency process applied with RFID time management, Door to intravenous thrombolysis time (DNT) was reduced from 125.00±43.16 min to 32.59±25.45 min (F = 121.857, p<0.001), and OTT was reduced from 235.53±57.27 min to 144.31±47.96 min (F = 10.377, p<0.001).
Conclusions
Time management with RFID is effective in reducing OTT in AIS patients with thrombolysis treatment.
