Overview of the training course
Stroke is the leading cause of death in Vietnam, accounting for 21.7% of all deaths due to diseases, an estimated 150,000 deaths per year. Of these, ischemic stroke constitutes 85%, while hemorrhagic stroke accounts for 15%. Can Tho S.I.S General Hospital has built and implemented a stroke emergency model with the aim of enhancing treatment efficacy and reducing mortality rates.
The S.I.S Emergency Department visits for acute stroke accounted for about 44% of the total number of emergency patients. Among these, ischemic strokes constituted 80% and hemorrhagic strokes 20%. The proportion of “golden hour” timeframe-fitted patients among acute ischemic stroke patients was about 21%. From the third quarter of 2022 to the first quarter of 2024, Can Tho S.I.S General Hospital received the “Diamond” award in the WSO Angels Award tier system seven consecutive times.
Besides the important function of treating patients, the Can Tho S.I.S General Hospital also aims to build a research and training center in the field of stroke diagnosis & treatment. It has provided training support to doctors from countries facing difficulties in stroke treatment, such as Malaysia, Philippines, Indonesia, and India, and has been approved by the Ministry of Health to become a training center and transfer of high technology to regional units and hospitals as well as countries in the region with training code C40.08.
With the emergence of endovascular intervention, especially neurovascular intervention, clinicians can easily diagnose cerebrovascular diseases as well as intervene to treat these lesions with the least invasive but the most effective. Cerebral angiography is the use of a catheter and wire system that travels from the femoral artery (in some cases a rotary or brachial artery) selectively to the cerebral arteries through a digital background-erase angiography (DSA) system.
Neurovascular interventions require extensive knowledge of neurovascular pathology and imaging. It is also indispensable that intervention skills are intended to limit complications and provide a high likelihood of success.
In that condition, we developed the training program of "Basic & Advanced Interventional Neuroradiology". With this program, we hope to train and transfer high technology to doctors & hospitals in the region as well as countries in the region. Provides timely diagnosis and treatment interventions for stroke patients – reducing the risk of permanent disability and mortality.
