Fucking useless. They measure something called the Stroke Care Bundle. NO MEASUREMENT OF RESULTS OR RECOVERY! The word recovery only appears once. Unless YOU get involved this crapola will continue.

Tableau Dashboard
The Tableau based dashboards summarise information about performance against the current Scottish Stroke Care Standards for inpatients and outpatients. In addition it shows how Health Boards have rated themselves against each component of the Scottish Stroke Improvement Plan. Data are presented at hospital and Health Board level.
About this Release
The Scottish Stroke Improvement Programme 2020 Annual Report includes data, from the Scottish Stroke Care Audit, describing the quality of stroke care in each acute hospital, grouped by Health Board, during 2019, measuring each hospital against Scottish Stroke Care Standards (2016).
Key Points
- 9,751 stroke patients were admitted to Scottish hospitals in 2019.
- Stroke Care Bundle compliance was 64% across Scotland, an improvement from 59% in 2018. Bundle compliance is measured for the first time incorporating the new 12-hour brain imaging standard. The Stroke Care Bundle is important because achieving it is associated with a reduced risk of dying and an increased likelihood of getting back home. However, overall compliance remains short of the 80% standard and more work is required to improve performance against this standard.
- The total number of patients who received thrombolysis across Scotland in 2019 was 980 (10.1% of all stroke admissions) which is similar to previous years (1,037 (10.7%) in 2018). However, there were consistently large variations in the proportion of stroke patients treated between NHS boards.
- In 2019 the average door to needle time across Scotland was 52.7 minutes, a decrease from 55.7 minutes in 2018.
Background
The SSCA monitors the quality of care provided by the hospitals in all Health Boards by collating data collected by the stroke Managed Clinical Networks (MCNs). These data are used by the Scottish Government to monitor progress against the Scottish Stroke Care Standards (2016) and the Scottish Stroke Improvement Plan (2014).
Health Boards are expected to identify aspects of their stroke services which do not meet the Scottish Standards and to work with their stroke MCNs to improve their standards of care locally.
