  • The fit-action is the pre-positioned, drilled response: a "door-to-needle" protocol engineered so the hospital's action-cycle is short enough to deliver thrombolysis inside the closing window.

    This sourceSpecifies the ≤60-minute door-to-needle target and the protocol bundle that shortens the hospital's action-cycle to deliver thrombolysis inside the closing window — the pre-positioned fit-action.

    The abstract describes Target: Stroke's ten-strategy bundle (prenotification, single-call team activation, premixed tPA) aimed at ≤60-minute door-to-needle times — the pre-positioned frame, but as design and goal, not proof.

    “The 10 key strategies chosen by Target: Stroke include emergency medical service prenotification, activating the stroke team with a single call, rapid acquisition and interpretation of brain imaging, use of specific protocols and tools, premixing tPA, a team-based approach, and rapid data feedback.”

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
