Episode 44: In this episode we sit down with Kim Malkin, Angels Initiative Lead for Australia to discuss the work she and her team are doing across the region to improve stroke care delivery. The Angels Initiative was launched in 2016 by Boehringer Ingelheim in partnership with the European Stroke Organisation (ESO), the World Stroke Organisation (WSO), the Stroke Alliance for Europe (SAFE), and many other national stroke societies, companies and health institutions. Their mission is aimed at reducing the burden of stroke for countless patients by working with hospitals, stroke teams, societies and individuals to build an innovative network of stroke-ready hospitals worldwide to reduce treatment delays and provide patients with the optimal standard of acute stroke care.About our guest:A move to Australia in 2004 provided not only more sunshine for Kim but also the opportunity to begin a long and diverse career with Boehringer Ingelheim – over a decade of which is in improving outcomes for stroke patients through the delivery of innovative preventative and acute stroke treatments. The company’s mission to improve the health and wellbeing of people and animals resonated strongly but more than that it is Boehringer Ingelheim’s inclusive culture and social responsibility which provides a source of great pride and motivation to Kim every day.In Australia, more than half of eligible stroke patients miss out on treatments that reduce disability and death. Although a developed country, Australia faces significant challenges when it comes to providing equity of access to optimal stroke care - particularly the tyranny of distance. Australia is a vast country, the sixth largest in the world, with a total area of 7,686,850 square kilometres and a population of over 25 million. Two-thirds of Australia’s population reside within metropolitan areas however the remaining live in regional or remote areas with poorer access to healthcare services.Leading the Angels Initiative in Australia, Kim is committed to establishing Angels as a sustainable model of quality improvement. With her dedicated team of Angels Consultants and over a decade of working closely with the Australian stroke community, they aim to achieve this through close collaboration with the many stakeholders across State and National health systems who are passionate about creating a better future for Australian stroke patients and their families.Show Resources:https://www.boehringer-ingelheim.com/cardiovascular/stroke-care/angels-initiativehttps://www.angels-initiative.com/https://fastheroes.com/Show Credits:Music intro credit to Jake Dansereau, connect at JAKEEZo on Soundcloud @user-257386777.Our intro welcome is the voice of Caroline Goggin, a stroke survivor and our first podcast guest!

Episode 43: Interview with Professor Stephen Davis & Geoffrey Donnan of the Australian Stroke Alliance.The Australian Stroke Alliance is comprised of more than 30 organisations working together to transform stroke care across Australia and improve the lives of those affected by stroke. They are developing novel mobile imaging, digital health and emergency transport technologies to radically transform stroke outcomes and deliver commercial benefits for all Australians. Rather than transporting patients to hospital, they drive or fly Australian-designed life-saving brain scanning equipment to a patient during the Golden Hour for Stroke, transforming their chances of survival and recovery. For Australians living in rural, remote and Indigenous communities, access to stroke treatment during the Golden Hour for Stroke is limited or non-existent – creating inequity and a major gap in health outcomes. The Australian Stroke Alliance is about equity, world-first innovation and bringing time-critical stroke treatment direct to the patient.About our guests:PROFESSOR GEOFFREY DONNAN AOGeoffrey is a professor of Neurology at The University of Melbourne and former Director of The Florey Institute of Neuroscience and Mental Health. He is the co-lead of the Australian Stroke Alliance and the Frontiers MRFF grant. His research interest is clinical stroke management. He was co-founder, with Professor Stephen Davis, of the Australian Stroke Trials Network. He is the co-chair of the EXTEND group of trials, including the recently published EXTEND IA trial of thrombectomy in acute ischaemic stroke. He was Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Stroke and is Past President of the World Stroke Organization.PROFESSOR STEPHEN DAVIS AOStephen is a professor of Translational Neuroscience at the University of Melbourne, Director of the Melbourne Brain Centre at the Royal Melbourne Hospital and a Past-President of the World Stroke Organization. He co-chairs the Melbourne Mobile Stroke Unit program. His research is focussed on acute therapy for both ischemic stroke and intracerebral haemorrhage, particularly the use of advanced imaging in selection of therapy. He is the co-lead of the Australian Stroke Alliance and the Frontiers MRFF grant.https://austrokealliance.org.auShow Credits:Music intro credit to Jake Dansereau, connect at JAKEEZo on Soundcloud @user-257386777.Our intro welcome is the voice of Caroline Goggin, a stroke survivor and our first podcast guest!

Episode 41

In our final episode of 2022 we had the pleasure to be joined by Pamela Duncan. Pam is a leading expert in stroke, neurologic recovery, aging and patient reported outcome measures and widely recognized for her efforts to reengineer post-acute care services and recovery following stroke. She develops consumer-oriented assessments to improve patient outcomes by guiding real-time clinical decision-making and recommendations for self-management, medical and social services.

The Compass CP platform was created based on insight gained from the COMPASS study, led by Wake Forest University School of Medicine and The University of North Carolina and conducted in 40 hospitals and with community partners across North Carolina. The study was funded through a $14 million, five-year award from the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI), an independent, nonprofit research funding organization authorized by Congress in 2010. 

COMPASS compared the health status of stroke patients who receive conventional post-hospitalization treatment to that of patients who receive comprehensive care based on a model developed by a team of physicians, nurses, therapists, pharmacists, health system and human services leaders, and patient and caregiver stakeholders. 

Because of her outstanding contributions to the investigation, management, mentorship and community service in the stroke field, Duncan is a 2020 recipient of the American Stroke Association’s David G. Sherman Lifetime Achievement Award. She is the first woman to ever be awarded this honor.
