stroke researchers and clinicians were well recognised at the European Stroke
Organisation Conference in Prague last month.
Europe’s foremost forum for discussing and
disseminating the latest standards and news on stroke management and care, the
Conference featured world-leading speakers and news on scientific
breakthroughs.
Head of Stroke at Monash
Health Associate Professor Henry Ma said the MHTP delegation was very fortunate
to have won two of the poster awards among the few selected for an oral
presentation.
One of the Best Poster
Awards was given to Associate Professor Ma (co-investigator Professor Thanh
Phan) for his research into the endovascular clot retrieval service boundary
utilising the Google Map application.
“More than 1000 abstracts
were submitted to the Conference, and our group (including clinical trials,
imaging and informatics) had five posters and one oral presentation,” Associate
Professor Ma said.
Associate Professor
Dominique Cadilhac, Head of the Translational Public Health and Evaluation
Division, Stroke and Ageing Research at Monash University won best poster
prize.
“There were over 4000 delegates at the
European Stroke Organisation Conference, and mine was one of several posters
chosen among hundreds for a 3 minute oral presentation during the welcome
drinks,” Associate Professor Cadilhac said.
Associate Professor Cadilhac presented new
statistical methods comparing 30-day hospital mortality rates using data from
the Australian Stroke Clinical Registry linked with data from hospital admissions
and death registrations.
