Window break
WindowBreak is a free cloud-based web app produced by Ain Shams University Virtual Hospital in collaboration with the Ain Shams neurology department stroke team. It can be accessed on any device that is connected to the internet, anywhere. It enables stroke centers to track their performance in acute stroke management.
It can track timing of individual events taking place within the door-to-needle time including the timing of:
- Clinical assessment
- Ordering and receiving of imaging
- Ordering and receiving of labs
- Ordering and initiation of rtPA
The dashboard provides up-to-date feedback on key performance indicators of the stroke center including:
- rtPA utilization
- Average door to needle time
- Average onset to door time
- Percent of visits in window break
These parameters can be viewed in different time epochs to track performance changes over time
WindowBreak enables a stroke center to compare its performance to other stroke centers in the region and see an overview of their different parameters while protecting their patient data.
It also allows tracking of individual doctor performance.
