Let's talk about what Telestroke is and then kind of walk us through your evolution of how this came to be.

Trent BourlandGUEST
Yes, Telestroke is an opportunity for direct access to larger hospital systems that have neurologists on staff or anybody that may be trained in neurology.

Trent BourlandGUEST
And so push of a button and within a few minutes you get one of these specialized individuals on the other side of the screen and they can do some evaluations and look at some scans.

Trent BourlandGUEST
and things of that to determine if this patient is able to receive the thrombolytics, whether or not they need to be transferred to a higher level of care.

Trent BourlandGUEST
And so it's an opportunity to try and... provide the best access to care in these rural communities.
