Network & education Ongoing

Stroke networks & education.

Helping stroke units connect across borders and raise pathway quality — and sharing open educational material on the decisions that define hyperacute stroke care.

This page summarises ongoing network and education activity. Specific resources and links will be added here over time.

Two sides of the same goal

Better stroke care spreads through systems and through people — networks raise the floor; education raises the ceiling.

Outcomes in stroke depend on the whole pathway and on the clinicians making fast decisions inside it. EUROSTROKES works on both: helping units build toward certified-standard care and connect into cross-border pathways, and producing clear educational material on hyperacute decision-making so the knowledge does not stay locked in a few centres.

Three connected stages numbered one, two and three

Assess the current network · Model the real pathway · Optimize the changes that matter.

What this involves

Cross-border pathways

Helping align referral and treatment pathways so a patient meets the same standard of care across systems and borders.

Education for physicians

Open material on hyperacute stroke decision-making — selection, timing, and the reasoning behind the call.

Speaking & teaching

Talks and teaching on acute stroke, pathway quality, and the role of AI in the stroke pathway.

How it connects

This work sits naturally alongside the rest of EUROSTROKES: the reasoning content draws on LiveTextbook, and the whole point is to move good decisions closer to every bedside.

A network made visible

Attica is the working proof.

The EUROSTROKES map turns fragmented service information into one navigable view of thrombolysis and thrombectomy capability. It is a practical tool for colleagues and a starting point for seeing how a network behaves as a system.

Schematic dot-map of nineteen stroke centres in Attica A bare schematic: each centre is a dot placed by its coordinates on a dotted grid, with no basemap or coastline. Larger clay-red dots are centres offering thrombectomy and thrombolysis; smaller navy dots are thrombolysis only. A solid ring marks a public hospital, a dashed ring a military hospital, and no ring a private hospital. Every dot is listed by name below the map.
