Amar Shah: Improving Thrombolysis for Acute Stroke Through Quality Improvement
Amar Shah, Consultant Forensic Psychiatrist at East London NHS Foundation Trust, Chair of the Scientific Advisory Board at IHI, National Clinical Director for Improvement at NHS England, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“An inspiring improvement story from Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, which has applied its improvement approach to increasing the percentage of eligible stroke patients who received thrombolysis.
Really rigorous work – understanding the pathway, standardising, testing new change ideas, using data for learning – which will make a big difference for patients and their families, and has already led to improved staff confidence and patient satisfaction.
Well done Ailsa Brotherton, Silas Nicholls, Stuart Clough, Kurt Bramfitt.”
