Abstract
A comprehensive and integrating approach of all emergency medical teams implied in cerebrovascular attack (CVA) has been proposed within the framework of Emergencies Andalusian Initiative. Key action points were: the identification of CVA by emergency medical teams, the development of extrahospital care protocols for the patients up to diagnostic confirmation, the implementation of specific assistance teams, the use of trustworthy epidemiological information, and the development of a training (and information) plan for health professionals. A multidisciplinary group was set up in order to propose improvement actions applicable to these key points in the area of a public health system and, finally, a consensus document was written that constituted the basis for Andalusian Acute Stroke Initiative (PLACA project).
