Development of Software Solutions for Stroke: A Personal Experience

Abstract

Variety of software solutions are being used for clinical use. This special contribution focuses on the personal experience of developing several software solutions concerning stroke. Stroke119 application was developed to inform the patient of the closest hospital available for thrombolytic therapy and provides a simple three-step self-test for detection of acute stroke. A multi-center web-based registry solution named SMART DB was developed to facilitate multi-center studies. Over 650,000 records were created by 25 centers in SMART DB. An artificial intelligence-based web solution for prediction of coronary artery disease in stroke patients was developed named S2CAD. A clinical decision support platform for thrombi acquired from endovascular thrombectomy named ARIA Cloud was developed. Software for stroke is actively being developed in Korea. Software solutions are expected to increase efficiency by providing clinical decision support in the near future.
