Learning Objectives:
By attending this course, the participant will provide better patient care through an increased understanding of:
• Managing the chaos – identifying priorities and establishing role expectations during Code Stroke/BART
• Administering alteplase safely – understanding elements of the medication safety pause, accurate administration and documentation of bolus/infusion/NS flush
• Monitoring of the alteplase patient – understanding requirements and expectations for monitoring frequency and documentation, early identifications of complications, the importance of blood pressure management
• Transferring safely – identifying essential information to aid in safe patient handoffs, establishing expectations for transferring patients for Code IR

Managing the chaos
Code Stroke / Code BART
• Process changes based upon updated clinical practice guidelines (CPGs)
• Nursing specific responsibilities affected:
Do not delay CT – EMS straight to CT, single attempt IV/lab draw, POC
Do not delay alteplase – may proceed prior to lab results unless suspicion of abnormal platelet count or coag studies
• Communication challenges – establishing role expectations
Learnings from other code processes
Don’t make assumptions

Administering alteplase safely – Medication Safety Pause
1. Neurologist/ED MD: final review inclusion/exclusion, consent, confirm final ‘give alteplase’, place orderset
2. Primary RN/Pharmacy: dose verification
• Pharmacy – completes dose calculation, pharmacy checklist, places alteplase orders, delivers medication
• Primary RN – independent dose calculation
• Primary RN & Pharmacy – upon medication delivery, validate that they have the same dose calculated
3. Primary RN/Charge RN (or delegate): bedside check
• Confirm 5 Rights
• Prime tubing & set pump
• Assess vitals/neuros
• 2 RN MAR sign-off – confirms 5 Rights, pump settings, BP within parameters (<180/105)

Monitoring of the alteplase patient
Requirements:
• NIH – initial assessment and/or prior to alteplase
• Vitals/neuros:
• Initial assessment – initial identification of any BP elevations
• Immediately prior to alteplase – is the BP within parameters
• Q15 x 2 hours, Q30 x 6 hours, Q1 x 16 hours
Ongoing patient management
Prevent complications
Identify complications

Complications
Preventing complications:
• Blood pressure management
Alteplase parameters < 180/105
• Blood sugar management
Parameters = normoglycemia (140-180 mg/dl)
Elevations contribute to increased symptomatic ICH and poor outcomes
Identifying complications:
• Angioedema
• Bleeding
• Decreased LOC
• New onset headache
• New onset nausea/vomiting
• Declining neuro status

Transferring safely
• Nurse to nurse handoff for alteplase and IR patients is vital for ensuring safest patient care
• Code Worksheet contains the basics for communicating handoff on these patients
• Patients being transferred to CH for Code IR need the Code IR packet
