Case Study Brainomix & Visionable: Delivering Complete Solutions for Stroke The two complementary technologies provide full pathway solutions for stroke teams, saving time, reducing workload, and supporting improved outcomes.

The stroke team at Ipswich Hospital in Suffolk have recently incorporated two innovative technologies into their stroke service, the Visionable platform and Brainomix’s e-Stroke AI software, which together have delivered solutions across the pathway, from the pre-acute phase to the intra-hospital phase. As a result, the team have observed a speedier delivery of care, superior performance metrics, and, most importantly, improved patient outcomes.

“I was treated with great care & speed. Once at the hospital, I was treated immediately & admitted to Shotley Ward.” - Patient Feedback Part of the East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust (ESNEFT) and the East of England ISDN, Ipswich Hospital have for many years maintained a high-performing stroke service, reflected by their high SSNAP scores, including an impressive 13% thrombolysis rate for the 500 stroke patients admitted each year to Ipswich. The Visionable platform is now helping to maintain that top level of service, playing a key role in the East of England Telemedicine...

Recent performance metrics indicate that Ipswich continue to deliver bestin-class service, with their proportion of patients being assessed by a Stroke Consultant within 24 hours above the national average (90.4% vs 82.9%), along with how quickly that assessment takes place from admission (4 hours 20 minutes compared to 9 hours 53 minutes nationally).

Patients admitted to Ipswich who are eligible for mechanical thrombectomy are transferred to the Royal London Hospital (RLH), a comprehensive stroke centre in Whitechapel that serves as a supraregional thrombectomy hub for Ipswich and a number of other stroke units across the Southeast of England. RLH are the epicentre of the largest stroke AI network in the UK, serving a population of over 9 million patients. Post implementation of Brainomix e-Stroke, mRS scores (0-3 months) increased from 33% to 55% within 12 months and continue to show an upward trend. MT procedures increased by an...

The implementation of Brainomix’s e-Stroke platform has played a key role in optimising Ipswich’s thrombectomy referral service. “As a district general hospital, we don’t have ready access to dedicated neuroradiologists to interpret every stroke scan. Having the AI software gives us more confidence when interpreting each scan – particularly the CTA’s, where we look for a large vessel occlusion (LVO), a key indicator of patient eligibility for mechanical thrombectomy,” noted Dr. Sajid Alam, Stroke Consultant at Ipswich Hospital. “When you have to organize a blue-light ambulance transfer,...

“The strength of combining the proven technologies of Visionable and Brainomix means easy and instantaneous access to rich critical clinical information across the pre-acute and intra-hospital phases. Our joint approach will tackle head on many of the known systems bottlenecks where multiple stroke centres are involved in a highly time sensitive pathway. We are excited with the enhanced value this collaboration will bring to our customers.” - Riaz Rahman, VP Healthcare Global at Brainomix “Technology must make life easier for clinicians and improve treatment for patients; Brainomix and...
