During a #stroke, Black Americans arrive later to emergency departments ā which are less likely to be notified of a patientās condition ahead of time, a national study in Circulation shows: michiganmedicine.org/health-lab/blaā¦

The research, led by Regina Royan, MD MPH, Brian Stamm, MD MSc and Tracy Madsen MD PhD, foundĀ that it took nearly 30 minutes longer for a Black patient to be brought in for emergency care after displaying symptoms of a stroke. EMS was also ~20% less likely to notify the ED ahead of arrival.

Nearly 90% of strokes are ischemic, meaning blood flow is blocked by a clot that stops brain cells from getting oxygen. There are several lifesaving stroke treatments, but not every person receives the same one. Neurologist Joe Carrera, MD explains: michmed.org/PYGP7
