Abstract
Introduction

Care pathways (CP) are tools for standardizing the management of patient in certain diseases with a predictable course, and they have demonstrated usefulness in clinical practice. In-hospital stroke CP have been implemented in departments of Neurology, General Medicine or Rehabilitation, however there are few studies developing an integrated CP in hospitals with an acute Stroke Unit (SU). The aim is to develop a CP capable of organizing and homogenizing the stroke assistance, and integrating the quality standards, in a hospital with an Acute Stroke Unit (SU).

Methods

Members of the Neurology, Rehabilitation, Emergency and Preventive Medicine departments established a schedule of nine fortnightly meetings. Several documents that compound the CP were elaborated following the FOCUS-PDCA model, according with the scientific evidence and the in force clinical guides.

Results

The following documents were elaborated: scientific-technical framework which integrates all processes; information document for patient/relatives on-admission; nurses protocols (social risk, disphagya, falling down risk and pressure ulcers); stroke rehabilitation guidelines for staff; treatment, care and monitoring sheets; recommendations at discharge for patient/relatives; stroke rehabilitation guidelines for patient/relatives; specific didactic units for patient/relatives; patient/relatives satisfaction survey; and quality standard document.

Conclusions

A stroke CP in a hospital with SU potentially promotes a more organized and efficient stroke care, as well as improve the patient/relatives satisfaction.

Resumen
Introducción

Las vías clínicas (VC) son herramientas para la asistencia estandarizada en procesos con poca variabilidad que se han demostrado útiles en la práctica clínica. Se han realizado varias VC de ictus en servicios de medicina general, rehabilitación y salas de neurología, pero no así en hospitales con unidad de ictus agudo. El objetivo es desarrollar una VC capaz de organizar y homogeneizar la atención integrando los estándares de calidad en un hospital universitario con una unidad de ictus agudo (UI).

Métodos

Miembros de los servicios de Neurología, Rehabilitación, Urgencias y Medicina Preventiva del Hospital Universitario La Paz establecieron un programa de nueve reuniones quincenales. En éstas se elaboraron los diversos documentos que integran la VC siguiendo el modelo FOCUS-PDCA, de acuerdo con la evidencia científica y las guías clínicas vigentes.

Resultados

Los documentos resultantes son: matriz temporal científi co-técnica que integra todos los procesos; documento de información al ingreso para pacientes y familiares; protocolos de enfermería (riesgo social, disfagia, caídas y úlceras por presión); pautas de actuación en la rehabilitación del ictus para el personal sanitario; órdenes de tratamiento y cuidados; hoja de información al alta para pacientes y familiares; documento de información de rehabilitación para pacientes y familiares; unidades didácticas específicas; encuesta de satisfacción de la atención recibida para pacientes y familiares, y estándares de calidad.

Conclusiones

El desarrollo de una VC de ictus en un hospital con UI tiene el potencial de promover un cuidado organizado y eficiente del paciente, así como mejorar la satisfacción de éste por la atención recibida.
