In the high-speed field of stroke care, artificial intelligence (AI) can significantly impact patient results, with Aidoc’s Stroke Care Coordination (CareCo) App being a prime example. The app has transformed stroke care delivery across multiple partner facilities through three key characteristics of its successful implementation – dynamic project champions, establishing clear success metrics, and comprehensive live training for clinical teams. These factors have shown to be crucial in improving workflows in stroke care, reducing treatment duration, and enhancing patient outcomes.
The most successful implementations of Aidoc’s Stroke CareCo App had dynamic project champions. These individuals are goal-oriented and comprehend the immense value of integrating novel technology. They are passionate about their care team and their patients and harness the app’s power to streamline their team’s workflows, minimize patient treatment times and better patient outcomes. These project champions take charge within the organization of the change process, initiating it at the project’s beginning. They succeed by bringing major stakeholders on board and collaborating on the app’s best use within their stroke workflow. These champions have a firm grasp of their team’s dynamics and what they need for success. They can then proactively navigate any potential barriers or resistance to change.
The second factor is incorporating metrics to measure the new technology’s success. The clinical team determines what a successful implementation with the Stroke CareCo App looks like, from high user engagement to faster patient treatment times. They utilize available data that the CareCo App directly impacts and collaborates with Aidoc to evaluate the project’s success post-launch.
The third successful implementation factor is organized live training with high attendance from their clinical teams. Live training allows users of the Stroke CareCo App to grasp their roles in utilizing new technology, how the app can create workflow efficiencies, improve patient treatment times, and understand its functionalities that ensure a positive user experience. These training sessions facilitate a setting where new users can sign in, navigate the new technology, and have any queries addressed promptly.
Aidoc also provides whitepaper named “Unlock Your Health System’s Potential: A Comparison of Clinical AI Integration Options” for AI implementation options in healthcare. Aidoc, with its ability to be always-on, is a major player in leveraging AI for healthcare. Its three lessons about successful Stroke CareCo implementation provide insight into how AI can revolutionize healthcare by focusing on active project management, clear success metrics, and thorough training.
