ABSTRACT
Stroke is one of the main causes of mortality, long-term physical and cognitive impairment in China. In order to meet the challenge, Stroke Prevention and Treatment Project of the National Health Commission(SPTPC) was established in April 2011 in the Ministry of Health. In 2016, SPTPC issued a work plan of stroke center hospital. In order to shorten the time of pre-hospital, the SPTPC established the stroke center network, stroke map and stroke green channel to create "the three 1-hour gold rescue circle" to form a hierarchical stroke diagnosis and treatment system. The current construction of the Chinese Stroke Center is divided into two levels and four layers. As of December 31, 2018, SPTPC has certified a total of 310 advanced stroke centers, including 30 demonstration advanced stroke centers and 280 advanced stroke centers, and 127 stroke prevention centers, including 85 demonstration stroke prevention centers and 42 stroke prevention centers. The median time from admission to intravenous thrombolysis (DNT) at the advanced stroke center was decreased by 13.2% (53 min vs. 46 min) in the fourth quarter of 2018 as compared with that in the first quarter of 2017.The national thrombolytic rate of acute ischemic stroke was increased 3.24 times (1.78% vs. 0.42%) in 2017 compared that in 2010. In the next step, SPTPC will vigorously promote the construction of stroke centers and graded diagnosis and treatment mechanisms, consolidate quality control and standardization, increase the scope of influence of mobile stroke and remote diagnosis and treatment, and further improve the construction of stroke center systems with Chinese characteristics.
