Case Study: St. Mary’s Hospital reduces stroke treatment time with Sevaro teleneurology

St. Mary’s Hospital cuts stroke treatment time from 118 to 40 minutes with Sevaro

St. Mary’s Hospital faced a significant challenge in providing timely stroke care, with an average door-to-needle time of 118 minutes. The hospital partnered with Sevaro, a provider of AI-powered virtual neurology and telestroke solutions, to improve the efficiency and outcomes of its stroke treatment.

By implementing Sevaro's teleneurology platform, St. Mary’s connected emergency department teams directly with vascular neurologists within 45 seconds. This solution dramatically reduced the average treatment time from 118 minutes to 40 minutes, increased the use of clot-busting tPA medication by 83%, and eliminated missed eligible patients. As a result of this partnership with Sevaro, the hospital was recognized as a national leader in stroke care by the American Heart Association.
