How AI will help save 100,000 lives

Every 30 minutes a stroke patient who could have been saved dies or is permanently disabled, in many cases because they were treated in the wrong hospital. In Europe, only about a third of stroke patients have access to the organised stroke care they need to survive a stroke with minimal or no disability. Stroke treatment is particularly time-sensitive. The so-called door-to-therapy (D2T) time describes the time interval between a patient arriving at the hospital and the initiation of their therapy. D2T time is critical for patient outcomes: on average, each single minute saved adds two days of healthy life and every 15 minutes saved adds one extra month of disability-free life.
