PROJECT AT GLANCE
Global registry of hospital reports for stroke care improvement RES-Q+ is a collaborative project under Horizon Europe, that will capitalize on a successful Registry of Stroke Care Quality (RES-Q) currently used by 90+ EU and other countries around the world for collecting and analysing quality of stroke care. RES-Q+ will capture not only in-hospital information but the entire patient pathway including post discharge care. RES-Q+ will automate data entry into registry using natural language processing (NLP) with a clinically validated semantic model and will further improve audit and feedback. A standard model will be created for these audit reports using artificial intelligence (AI). A major expansion is the creation of two new AI-enabled voice assistants, one helping patients provide feedback on their health status and the other assisting physicians in a management of stroke care.
Watch the Horizon, better stroke care is coming!
