Stroke is a common and devastating disease and, until very recently, was largely unrecognised as a -preventable or treatable condition. Between 1998 and 2010, the National Sentinel Stroke Audit (NSSA) achieved 100% voluntary participation, collecting data on more than 60,000 patients from stroke services within England, Wales and Northern Ireland and becoming a benchmark for hospital stroke services. In this way it has informed stroke improvement at the local, regional and national levels and has overseen a radical change in stroke care within the NHS. This article describes the achievements of the NSSA and the -lessons learned.
中风是一种常见且具有破坏性的疾病，直到最近，它还很大程度上被认为是一种不可预防或不可治疗的疾病。在 1998 年至 2010 年期间，国家监测中风审计（NSSA）实现了 100%的自愿参与，从英格兰、威尔士和北爱尔兰的中风服务中收集了超过 60000 名患者的数据，并成为医院中风服务的基准。通过这种方式，它为地方、地区和国家各级的中风改善提供了信息，并监督了国民保健制度中风护理的根本变革。本文描述了 NSSA 的成就和经验教训。
