Stroke care providers

qER enables early intervention by streamlining existing stroke-care workflows. It assists stroke centers and emergency room physicians in ED protocol automation, bleed identification and quantification, tPA administration, and hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke management.

Emergency Room physicians

• qER assists in reducing door-to-needle time and door-to-disposition time for patients by quick triage and treatment.
• Using qQuant along with qER will additionally assist in quantifying the volume of intracranial structures and lesions rapidly and precisely.
• Clinicians use this to track the progress of patients with hemorrhagic stroke, traumatic brain injury, or hydrocephalus and by researchers to develop new quantitative outcome measures. Clinicians also use these quantitative measurements to assist with determining the severity of the trauma, lesion, or underlying disease, or to assist with the comparison of multiple CT scans.

Radiologists

• Radiology worklists are complex to manage, especially in a teleradiology settings or imaging centers with high scan volume. ‘STAT’ designations assigned when the CT scan is requested don’t always reflect the true degree of urgency.
• qER helps reduce onset-to-treatment times for critical scans and meet stroke and trauma reporting standards. qER-Quant provides information about bleed subtypes and localizes the target abnormalities to facilitate review.
• qER is offered with a reporting assistance mode that pre-populates radiologist templates with this information.
