What is stroke? Disruption of blood supply to brain – ‘brain attack’. • Two main types • ischaemic (80%), haemorrhagic (15%) • Sudden onset • e.g. weakness of limbs, loss of speech, unconsciousness • Transient ischaemic attack (TIA) lasts <24 hrs • 110,000 people a year in UK have a stroke • Around 30% die within a year • Single largest cause of disability in the UK • Risk factors include • age, raised bp, smoking, alcohol, lack of exercise, atrial fibrillation, obesity, previous TIA.
Mortality • Age profile • PCTs map mortality • Association with deprivation

Primary care quality markers • Further investigations (Stroke 11) • Blood pressure (Stroke 6) • Cholesterol (Stroke 8) • Anti-coagulation (Stroke 12)

Secondary care quality markers Sentinel Audit: Royal College of Physicians • Phase 1 • organisation of care. 10 domains • Phase 2 • process of care. 12 Key Standards
Conclusions • Higher than national mortality • More stroke? • More likely to die? • Quality indicators vary • Expect changes following introduction of National Stroke Strategy
