Brief Summary

Program to Avoid Cerebrovascular Events through Systematic Electronic Tracking and Tailoring of an Eminent Risk-factor (PACESETTER) aims to assess the incorporation of its stroke intervention into 2 safety net/academic health sytems in a given US state especially burdened by stroke, thereby enhancing knowledge about the complexity of stroke interventions, and especially the nature of the challenges encountered in low resource settings and for populations traditionally underrepresented in research. Altogether, the intervention, if proven implementable and effective, may eventually be exported to other medically underserved populations in the US beyond SC as a feasible model of post-stroke management.
