Horstmyer, MD, FAAN Ritesh Kaushal, MD Italo Linfante, MD Edgard Pereira, MD Eric Peterson, MD Dileep Yavagal, MD Juan Carlos Zevallos, MD 501(c)3 Non -Profit Organization The Neuroscience Centers of Florida Foundation, Inc. (NSCFF) is an IRS designated, 501(c)(3) not -for -profit organization, established to improve healthcare delivery and address the unmet needs of patients afflicted with neurological diseases; namely, Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's Disease, Multiple Sclerosis and Stroke. Our organization's comprehensive team approach to care is uniquely poised to answer to a patient's medical and non -medical issues. As a comprehensive care organization, NSCFF aims to provide diagnosis, treatment, disease management, support services, and education to patients, their loved ones and caregivers to keep patients at home, at work, and out of the hospital. Under the umbrella of Neurology, NSCFF's affiliate, the Miami -Dade Stroke Consortium (MDSC) was established in 2011 as a 501(c)(3) non- profit corporation to improve stroke care and outcomes in Miami -Dade County. The Consortium has established an innovative approach to stroke data collection for the estimated 4,000 strokes that occur per year in the County. Working under the auspices of the Fire Officer's Association of Miami - Dade County (FOAM-D), agreements with 14 Primary and Comprehensive Stroke Center Hospitals in Miami -Dade County have been executed to include participation in MDSC's network. MDSC's design for data collection standardizes pre -hospital and in - hospital data among the 6 Fire Rescue departments and 14 hospitals. Pre -hospital data is collected using an electronic Stroke Tool installed on all emergency vehicles while in -hospital data is collected electronically using the American Heart Association's Get With The Guidelines -Stroke Patient Management Tool. Both pre -hospital and in -hospital data sources are then collated into NIH's REDCap system. REDCap is a secure, web - based application, designed to support data capture for research studies. With an advisory group consisting of top neurologists and neuro- interventional radiologists to provide advice, and another made up of hospital stroke coordinators, MDSC has created a framework that will aid in accomplishing our mission and allowing for replication of concept throughout the country. 2150 Coral Way, 8th Floor, Miami, FL 33145 • Tel (305) 856-8940 • Fax (305) 456-3797 • jreed.MDSC@gmail.com 1(9- 601(i95- SQbm► nl- (--.k,ry Ro(S1-\ r- m►Umi-bR JhovSO-YfiUI11L Miami Dade Stroke Consortium, Inc.
