The Jefferson Exchange: Long Distance Stroke Care

This week, radio listeners in Southern Oregon learned how high-tech connections are helping Oregonians overcome stroke.

OHSU and the Rogue Valley Medical Center in Medford have launched a new telestroke collaboration. Physicians from both hospitals appeared on Jefferson Public Radio’s Jefferson Exchange show to explain what exactly telestroke is and how stroke care is rapidly progressing.

Heres a link to the full show. OHSU’s physician, Dr. Hormozd Bozorgchami, and others can be heard at about 6:15.
