MidAmerica Stroke Network

In May 2008, SSM Health Saint Louis University Hospital launched the MidAmerica Stroke Network in an effort to promote quality stroke care measures throughout our region. SSM Health Saint Louis University Hospital is the ONLY hospital in Missouri and Illinois, and one of only 13 in the United States to receive the Gold Award for Heart Attack, Heart Failure and Stroke from the American Heart Association.

About the MidAmerica Stroke Network

SSM Health Saint Louis University’s team is consistently recognized for their efforts in delivering care that’s consistent with the American Heart Association’s most up-to-date scientific guidelines for the treatment of coronary artery disease, heart failure and stroke. Triple Gold Performance Achievement in all three Get with the Guidelines℠ quality improvement programs is additional proof that exemplary care is close by when you need it most.

Stroke patients who receive tPA within three hours of the onset of their stroke symptoms are at least 30% more likely to recover from their stroke with little to no disability after three months. Our expert staff at SSM Health Saint Louis University Hospital solved a needed response to the countless number of stroke patients unable to receive adequate treatment.
